Beartooth's Taylor Lumley Has Parted Ways With The Band

On the plus side, though, they've promised new music very soon.

April 12, 2018

Beartooth guitarist Taylor Lumley has parted ways with the band.

"As some of you may have heard, our close friend and brother Taylor Lumley has decided to leave Beartooth in order to focus his energy on other creative endeavors," the group announced in a statement. "We wish him love, success, and happiness in his journey – and we know you all will too. Thanks for sticking with us in this transitional period. We’ll have some new tunes for you guys ASAP!"

All the best, Taylor!

Don't forget that you can catch Beartooth at this year's Reading & Leeds…
