Slaves guitarist Alex Lyman leaving band

Alex Lyman, guitarist of Jonny Craig-fronted rock/post-hardcore act Slaves, has announced his impending departure from the California band. Lyman had this to say:

"I'm going to skip the super long statement for this one and just say that this tour we are on right now will be my last tour with Slaves and I will no longer be a part of Slaves. I'm in the middle of collaborating on a new CD with my good friend Anna Clendening that I think you all will really like. I hope to see some of you again or meet some of you I haven't before on the remainder of this tour. This choice is a big relief for me and I hope you guys can support that. Thank you!"
