Cut Off Your Hands Drummer Departs
Tuesday, 31st March 2009 12:00AMDrummer Brent Harris from Cut Off Your Hands has decided to stand down from drumming duties for the foreseeable future.
Harris has released a statement about a 'medical impediment', namely hearing loss that is only able to be diagnosed after 12months of no drumming
From his statement:
Sadly, the only way to know if drumming is inducing or aggravating the loss is to plainly stop playing loud music for 12 months - which in turn has made me decide to step down from Cut Off Your Hands for the next year. This decision represents much thought and was incredibly difficult for me to make. The concept of life outside of Cut Off saddens me; we have all devoted so much of ourselves to make this band work. I’m now thoroughly addicted to making music and it hurts to know I wont be sharing it with the guys I have enjoyed it with over the past many years. I don’t feel good about it but I believe it’s the right thing for me to do.
