Greeley Estates guitarist quits band

Greeley Estates has confirmed the departure of guitar player Alex Torres. The group had the following to say: "Alex has left Greeley to pursue other musical endeavors. With that said, David [Ludlow] is going to move from bass and take the guitar spot from now on. Thank you for all the feedback and inquiries. We're also happy to announce that our good friend Micah from Oh, Sleeper is going to be filling in on bass for the Japanese tour with August Burns Red. It's gonna be a slam diggity dang of good time!" Meanwhile, Torres has issued this statement: "I'm not exactly sure how to say this, but as of a month ago, I let the guys know that I would be leaving the band. And the 'Oh, Sleeper' tour would be my last tour in Greeley Estates. "I have nothing against any of the guys in the band, I love the guys, the music, the shows, the amazing fans, everything!! I just felt that I had to do what was best for me in my life, and what would make me happy. Obviously, I still love and support the guys in Greeley Estates and only wish them the best. They have LOTS of amazing things coming up that you WILL be stoked on. "To clear things up early, NO there is NO bad blood, and everyone is on good terms. Greeley has been my family since 2007, and that will NOT change. "You guys are the best, and I appreciate all the love you've shown me over the last few years. I love you all, and thank you for your continued support in myself, and Greeley Estates."
