In a recent MySpace blog, Nevada psychos Cobra Skulls have announced that their longtime drummer, Chad Cleveland, is leaving the band. Chad has been around the Skulls since their formation, and it’ll be interesting to see how the band progresses sans Cleveland. Cobra Skulls are currently on tour with their new drummer, Luke Ray from Nothington. Check out when they’ll be playing near you at the band’s Dying Scene Shows page.
Read the full statement by Chad and the Cobra Skulls here.
The sad news is our good friend and drummer, Chad “Fatty-Fingers” Cleveland, has moved on to pursue other interests. We are going to miss Chad, he’s been like family to us, a great friend and a great drummer. We are sad to see him go, but support his decision and hope for the best for his next adventure in life.
Here’s a little note from the mang, himself:
“My sincerest thanks to everyone who supported us in anyway. Being in CS has been the best experience of my life. I met more amazing, thoughtful people and friends, than I ever imagined. My biggest thanks and wishes go to the two that make it all happen, Devin and Adam, best times ever. Life’s a garden, dig it.”
The good news is we will be touring with a new drummer over the next few months (sucks for those of you who like those played-out acoustic-punk sets – that shit’s soooo 2008!). His name is Luke and some of you may know him from when he was playing with Nothington and touring with Only Crime for a while. We are excited to have him join the clan. He’s a cool dude and really knows how to slap those hams! We’ll all miss Chad, but we hope you’ll welcome Luke with us on the road over the next few months!
