Weedpecker - Announce Line-Up Changes, Cancel Tour
Polish stoner outfit Weedpecker have reduced their numbers to just one, as most of the band members have parted ways with each other. The two brothers, Piotr and Bartek have decided to take separate music paths, with Piots remaining and Kuks and Karol leaving the band and joining Bartek in his future musical endeavors. New members for Weedpecker have already been chosen and will be announced soon. The band also canceled their upcoming tour in France and Germany. You can read the entire statement below:
"Dear people,
"We have a very important statement for you about significant changes in Weedpecker. Me (Piotr) and Bartek decided to take our separate music paths. The fact that we are brothers, made this choice even more difficult for us. Bartek was a member of Weedpecker from the very beginning, he recorded with us all the albums, played countless gigs and rehearsals. He is a composer of such pieces as Embrace or Lazy Boy and The Temple of Wonders.
Bartek, my beloved brother, thank You with all my heart for all the years together. Your contribution to this band has been enormous and you will always be a member of Weedpecker. I wish you a lot of success in your new art. I am convinced, that soon we will all hear about your new cool band.
"Under these circumstances, Weedpecker is saying goodbye to Kuks and Karol. They are close friends with Bartek and will keep playing together. I am sure that new project which they will create together, will be perfect.
Karol and Kuks, dear boys, thanks that you've put up with me - the old stoner grandfather - for so long. At every gig you gave your best on the stage. I am really grateful to you for all the time spent together, and again, thank you with all my heart.
Unfortunately, we must cancel Weedpecker's tour in France and Germany. I would like to strongly apologize to all the organizers and assure that we will be back as soon as possible.
"So what happens to Weedpecker now?
Something must end for something new to come. The new band members are already chosen and started working hard. We'll give you more details soon. The plan is the same as usual. We will record the next album. You can be sure it's gonna happen! Stay tuned!
A lot of love for all of you who support this band.
Peace!
Piotr"

3/4 of the band replaced? Bit concerning. Probably my favourite new stoner rock/metal band, would be a shame if they lost their way, although I don't know how much their sound was dominated by the guy who's still in the band

Their last album was a 2018 favorite. Such a big line up change is indeed concerning. 
---- I thought the two primary purposes for the internet were cat memes and overreactions.

Wow, I hope they keep the quality! LOVED their first album, but the rest are great as well! I hope they can rebound with more great jams!
