SEVENDUST Drummer Hospitalized; Band Pulls Out Of U.K. Tour With ALTER BRIDGE And SHINEDOWN

**UPDATE: SEVENDUST drummer Morgan Rose is in “stable” condition after being hospitalized for an undisclosed illness earlier in the week.**

SEVENDUST has been forced to cancel its previously announced U.K. shows as the support act for ALTER BRIDGE and SHINEDOWN. The trek was scheduled to kick off on December 14 at Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham and conclude on December 21 at The O2 in London.

SEVENDUST broke the news of its cancelation via social media earlier today. The band wrote: “UK family – It is with a heavy heart we have to say – we will not be able to join our brothers in @alterbridge & @Shinedown on our upcoming U.K. dates. Morgan Rose (drums) is sick and in the hospital and under Dr. orders not to leave the country. We WILL make it up to you! See you at Xmas.“

SEVENDUST guitarist Clint Lowery recently said that the band has “pretty much wrapped” the recording process for its new album, tentatively due next summer. The follow-up to last year’s “All I See Is War” was once again tracked at Studio Barbarosa in Gotha, Florida with producer Michael “Elvis” Baskette, who has previously worked with ALTER BRIDGE and SLASH, among others.

“All I See Is War” was released in May 2018. It marked the group’s first album for Rise Records, the Oregon-based metal and hard rock label which was purchased by BMG in 2015.

UK family - It is with a heavy heart we have to say - we will not be able to join our brothers in @alterbridge & @Shinedown on our upcoming U.K. dates. Morgan is sick and in the hospital and under Dr. orders not to leave the country. We WILL make it up to you! See you at Xmas.
