Silverstein announce new guitarist
Silverstein have announced that guitarist Neil Boshart has departed from the band, and has been replaced by Paul Marc Rousseau. The band posted the following statement regarding the line up change: "So, as anyone who has seen us play in the last month has most likely noticed, Neil isn't in the band anymore. We have a new guitar player now who is absolutely awesome. His name is Paul Marc Rousseau. You may know him from his old projects I Am Committing A Sin as well as Burst & Bloom, and you've probably seen him on tour with us as he's worked for us over the last few years.

We wish Neil all the best with his future endeavours, and stay tuned for some BIG Silverstein news over the next month or so!"

Hawthorne Heights have overcome obstacles that many bands these days would fail to endure – the devastating loss of band member Casey Calvert whom they had discovered had passed away on their tour bus, as well as long drawn out legal battles with their label Victory Re...
