DevilDriver Leave Static-Z Tour After Cancer Diagnosis

Michael Angulia | 10-24-2019

DevilDriver frontman Dez Fafaras' wife, Anastasia , has been diagnosed with cancer and that has forced the band to drop off their tour with Static-X.

Dez shared the following message, "My wife has been diagnosed with cancer. I will be staying home to care for her and be by her side every minute as she begins her Cancer fight with surgery and further treatments.

He added, "Apologies to all but I'm sure you all understand that family comes before work. We thank you for all your well wishes at this time . Dez Fafara"
