Funeral For A Friend part ways with drummer

Funeral For A Friend have announced that they have parted ways with drummer Ryan Richards.

Replacing Richards in the band is former Rise To Remain drummer Pat Lundy.

Richards posted the following statement regarding his departure from the band:

"After ten wonderful, enriching, emotional and fascinating years being a part of Funeral for a Friend - I've decided to hang up my drum sticks. I've always put music first in my life - but the time has come now for my family to take the top spot, after patiently waiting and supporting me for the last 10 years and more. I'm stoked to have my good friend Pat Lundy step into my vacant drumstool. There's not a better drummer than Pat for the job."
