The Used have today announced that their guitarist Quinn Allman will be taking a hiatus from the band for the next year. A statement from the band read:
“We are saddened to announce that Quinn will be taking a temporary hiatus from the band for the next year. Quinn is a vital part of the group and we wish him the best in his upcoming endeavors and look forward to the day he rejoins us on the road. We are thrilled, however, to share that Justin Shekoski of Saosin will be filling in for Quinn as we hit the road this year! Justin has been a close friend to all of us for many years and will help make this tour a memorable one!”
The Used are set to kick off their 11 date UK tour this week at Southampton’s Mo Club.
