The Swellers post update on new lineup, new album

The Swellers have sent us an update on their new lineup, and plans for their next record:

In March of this year, Nick and I were given a 2-months notice by our
guitarist Garrett saying he was leaving the band. When our bassist found out, he decided to leave the
band on the spot, giving us 7 days to find a bassist to fill in on all
of our upcoming tours. The same day we got that call, Ryan Collins
(guitarist of Alucard) jumped in to save the day. Ryan learned all of
our songs in a week, packed up his life and has been with us on the
road with us ever since. When the time came, Ryan switched from
fill-in bassist to our full-time guitarist. Still leaving us in need
of a bassist.

Once Garrett left before our 3 week Canadian tour in June, we decided
to recruit one of our best friends, Brad Linden, as our bassist. After
the tour, things started to fall into place. Brad sold his guitar
equipment for bass gear, dropped out of college in his final year, and
made the decision to join The Swellers full-time.

We're busy writing our
next record which will be out next year. Not sure what month or what
label, but we're very stoked on it already.

The band released My Everest last year.
