Die Rock-Band Skid Row trennte sich kürzlich vom schwedischen Sänger Erik Grönwall. Gründe sind Grönwalls Gesundheit. Das Tourleben eignet sich weder allgemein für eine positive Gesundheit noch für eine Genesung. Auf den bestehenden Tourdaten der Band füllt Sängerin Lzzy Hale den Platz.
Die Skid Row Mitglieder schreiben: “SKID ROW AND ERIK GRÖNWALL ANNOUNCE AMICABLE DEPARTURE
LZZY HALE WILL FILL IN FOR UPCOMING CONCERT DATES
Today Skid Row and Erik Grönwall jointly announce that Erik will step down as the vocalist for Skid Row. Longtime friend Lzzy Hale of Halestorm will be taking over vocal duties for the upcoming scheduled four concerts.
Erik has decided that the travel and rigors of the road is not conducive to his overall health and recovery, and wants to focus on a lifestyle that is more amenable for his well-being,
healing and family.
Skid Row is proud of what they have created and accomplished with Erik over the past two years and we wish nothing but the best to him and his health. To celebrate the last two years the band will be releasing a live album that perfectly captures this moment of time in the band’s 35+ year history, to be announced soon.
“I got the opportunity to join this incredible band 6 months after my treatment against leukemia. And one month after that I was on a world tour with Skid f**** Row. Wow! It was a dream come true. However, it proved challenging touring the world with an impaired immune system, which is a result of my bone marrow transplant. I respect and understand that Skid Row is a touring band but since I can’t prioritize my health being in the band, I have decided that it’s better for me to step aside. I love Skid Row, I have nothing but respect for the guys in the band but I love and respect my health more. I’m getting stronger and healthier every day but after consulting my doctor I need to allow myself more time to recover, which I can’t do as the lead singer of Skid Row. That’s why I have reached the tough decision to move on. I want to thank the guys for this incredible opportunity. And I want to thank all the Skid Row fans who accepted me as the lead singer of this iconic band.
Health first!” /EG
