Today GALLOWS have announced that their frontman Frank Garter is leaving the band. The band will continue with a new singer, and Frank’s been working with his brother Jim Carroll in a new band called PURE LOVE, who plan to release a debut album in September.
Frank had this to say: “It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce my departure from Gallows. It seems that Gallows have hit a crossroads in our writing process and unfortunately myself and the rest of the boys have different ideas regarding the sound of Gallows going forward. Gallows have decided they are going to continue on without me and I wish the boys the best of luck for the future. Gallows will be fulfilling all of our current touring plans until August 1st so please come down to a show and help me make each show a total celebration!”
The band played together at Sonisphere literally a few hours ago, and they’ve got 5 gigs left with Frank. You can see them at Swansea tomorrow, Gloucester on the 11th, Guildford on the 17th, Cockermouth on the 22nd, and finally at ULU on the 23rd.
