Heroes For Hire announce line up changes

Heroes For Hire have announced that both guitarist Alex Bonic and drummer Lee McGaritty have left the band, and have been replaced by Anthony Caruso and Matthew “Gremlin” Gravolin of The Bride.

Heroes For Hire have announced that both guitarist Alex Bonic and drummer Lee McGaritty have left the band, and have been replaced by Anthony Caruso and Matthew "Gremlin" Gravolin of The Bride.


The band's guitarist and vocalist Duane Hazell commented, "Gremlin and Anthony are two of our best friends and have been involved with our band in one way or another for years now, so when it came to replacing Lee and Alex it made perfect sense to ask them to join permanently."


Caruso and Gravolin joining Heroes For Hire doesn't mean The Bride will be slowing down, with Caruso stating, "Matt and I joining Heroes For Hire just made sense. Both Heroes and The Bride have always been one big happy family and this is just an extension of that. The Bride’s future is looking bright as we’re undergoing some big changes and working hard on a new record that we can’t wait to share with you all."


The band will be ending the year with select one-off shows and a stint around Australia with Mayday Parade and We Are The In Crowd in December. Click here to view the dates, venues and ticketing information of the tour.
