Neck Deep have formally welcomed Sam Bowden into the fold as their new, full-time guitarist. It follows a series of live shows with Bowden standing in after the departure of Lloyd Roberts earlier in the year.
Bowden has also played for Blood Youth.
“As a few of you may have noticed, we’ve been playing live with a stranger. However, he’s no longer a stranger. Please join us in welcoming our new guitarist Sam to the unit,” the band said in their announcement.
“We love him, we’re sure you will too.”
The new formation will be embarking on a world tour next year, including nine dates in the UK with various supports.
