Glenn Hughes Confirms California Breed Is No More
. (hennemusic) Glenn Hughes has issued his first public comments on the breakup of California Breed. The former Deep Purple bassist formed the group in 2013 with Jason Bonham - from the ashes of supergroup Black Country Communion - and guitarist Andrew Watt, who revealed last week that the band had called it quits. The group released their self-titled debut last May, but Bonham soon bailed due to scheduling commitments and was replaced by Queens Of The Stone Age/Eagles Of Death Metal drummer Joey Castillo. "Good morning," began Hughes in a Facebook post. "On June 2 Jason left California Breed. We had just gone on sale with tickets for the USA and Europe tours. I felt it necessary to commit to these shows, as we had recorded an album and we needed to play and promote our work. Joey C came in and played drums, and helped us out on tour , and I am supremely grateful for this." "What I couldn't commit to was a second album," he continued. "Cali Breed was Jason, Andrew and myself , and there was no way moving forward without all 3 original members." "Over the past 4 decades I have built a very loving and loyal fan base, where I know most of you, through touring, signing autographs for all, or on social networks, where I see your photographs or avatar, and answer you, in whatever you wish to ask or share with me. Those of you who have met me, or know me, know that I deeply care about LIFE..." Read what Hughes has planned next here. hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
