"For those of you who have seen us play during our last few tours this will not come as a shock seeing as Kim has been absent from the live lineup for quite some time.
"Kim has decided not to continue with the band, and we'd like to thank him for his invaluable contribution to this group over the years.
"As hard as it is seeing a brother go, this is truly the best thing for both parties as Kim's interest in touring and writing have been waning over the last year.
"We wanted to wait until we had found a suitable replacement before making any official announcement and we're very happy to finally be able to let everyone in on what's going on.
"Blackguard is very happy to welcome Mr. Louis Jacques of the band Kemilon to the family as new lead guitarist.
"Louis made his live debut with Blackguard yesterday at the D-tox Rockfest in Montebello , QC . This was an amazing show and a great way to kick off our journey together."
