Storm The Sky Drummer Announces Departure From Band

Melbourne outfit Storm The Sky have today announced the departure of their drummer, Alex Trail, from the band. 

Trail will perform his last show with the group this weekend at Victoria's UNIFY Festival.

"It is with a sore heart that we have to let you all know that our long time drummer Trail (Alex) will be leaving the band due to personal and career endeavours in his life that he's moving on to, and that we're extremely excited and happy to get behind and support," Storm The Sky said in a statement.

"Trail has been our brother for the last 10 years and so we will dearly miss having him around. We're all still close mates and wish him all the best in the future.

"With that said, we will be continuing as a four piece and won't be looking for a new drummer.

"Alex is an amazing friend and musician and we can't imagine replacing him anytime soon. Instead we'll be involving and jamming with musicians that we respect and hold as dear friends. We have a lot of exciting things in the works so stay tuned!"

The news is bittersweet for Storm The Sky fans, as the announcement coincides with the release of new music video, Wake Up Sleeping.

The clip is the third and final part of their music video trilogy, You Do This To Me, which includes Lilac and Medicine.
