The Black Maria has parted ways with guitarist Kyle Bishop. The band had the following statement posted on their webpage:

We have decided to part ways and move forward without Kyle. We appreciate everyone's support and will be announcing his replacement in the near future. We haven't slowed down a bit and we can't wait for you all to hear the new stuff we've been working on. We are excited about the future now more than ever!

No replacement has been named as of yet for the ex-Grade frontman.
