Diemonds Announce Canadian Tour

Diemonds have announced a hand full of shows together with Dirty Penny in Canada this spring.

The tour will be the first without Alan “YETI” Riches behind the drums as he has left the band. In a statement on Facebook he said that “My job has become a problem and i can no longer dedicate myself to the band at the level they deserve.” New stick man is Al Biddle.

Full Statement:

“Its with great regret that I announce my departure from Diemonds, I have nothing but fond memories and unending respect for my extended family. My job has become a problem and i can no longer dedicate myself to the band at the level they deserve. I look forward to seeing many more years of punishing rock and roll with my man Al Biddle pounding the sticks to skins. Keep it sleazy and let it roll!

Alan “YETI” Riches”
