MY DYING BRIDE Part Ways With Bassist; Announce New Drummer
February 21, 2007, 17 years ago
UK doom legends MY DYING BRIDE have issued the following update:
"My Dying Bride is sorry to have to say that on January 5th, 2007, bassist Adrian Jackson left the band. He has pledged his future in America and has made it quite clear there is no room in his plans for My Dying Bride. We have parted in good faith and wish him luck with his new life out there. It has absolutely no effect on any of the gigs we have confirmed. We have already rehearsed his replacement to gig readiness and she is looking forward to playing for the first time in My Dying Bride. More on his replacement, Lena, soon.Secondly we have had to replace long term stand in drummer/thunder truck/Uberlunatic John Bennet due to his work commitments. He is saddened by the fact he cannot drum for My Dying Bride anymore as are we, but we understand that we all have to make a living and wish him luck too in his job.
It's not all doom and gloom though as we have been rehearsing with excellent drummer Dan Mullins of THINE, BAL SAGOTH and SERMON OF HYPOCRISY fame and again he too is now at gig readiness. MDB has a new fresh focused feel to it and we are looking forward to the shows with a vengeance."
