Rumors have been flying about the fate of Hopeless Records artists Digger. Here's the official statement from the band:
"Digger has canceled their USA tour following the announcement from guitarist Garrett Hoskins, and bassist Ben Stephens, that they were leaving the group to persue other musical/artistic interests. The band would like to apologize to their fans and everyone involved in the tour. Remaining members Chris Benner & Mike Kelly would like to express that this is not an official end to the band. They will be in search for new members and resume plans for a tour later this year."

In happier Digger news, the band has plans to release an EP on Italian label Winona Records in April. The limited pressing EP will contain the single "Tattoo Broken Hearts" along with the video for the song, live, acoustic, and unreleased songs.
