Legend loses two members

The revolving door line up of Michigan based hardcore band Legend has continued, as bass player Joe Ellis and guitarist Aaron "Bubble" Patrick have both decided to leave the band.

The revolving door line up of Michigan based hardcore band Legend has continued, as bass player Joe Ellis and guitarist Aaron "Bubble" Patrick have both decided to leave the band.


Ellis has posted the following message regarding the situation:


"It has come to light that Bubble and I have reached too many disagreements with the band's direction. Having different goals and wants has melted down the chemistry between the members and me. Touring is a toll taker for sure, and it affects a band's personal relationships. We got into this band because we thought it would be non-stop fun all the time, and it quickly went away. So what's the point of playing in a band if it's not even fun anymore?


"There's always going to be that person that you just can't see eye to eye with. Neither I nor Bubble are willing to deal with that. We wish the best of luck for everyone in Legend and thank them for the opportunity but this band is not where we want to be in our lives right now... Bubble and I both have projects in the making that we have been working on so everyone keep an eye for that!"


Legend released their debut album "Valediction" on May 25 through Rise Records.
