Classic 80s Seattle metal outfit SANCTUARY has split with guitarist Brad Hull and has replaced him with Nick Cordle (pictured; ex-ARCH ENEMY, ARSIS).
Says SANCTUARY guitarist Lenny Rutledge: “Nick is an amazing musician and we believe he will bring a fresh energy to the lineup. You can see Nick Cordle with SANCTUARY this March touring Europe on the Killfest tour.”
Adds Cordle: “It’ll be a great pleasure to join SANCTUARY on tour in Europe! I’ve admired the band for a long time and [SANCTUARY’s new album] The Year The Sun Died is a breath of fresh air. It’s a welcome challenge to work up these songs and I’m excited to get moving!”
SANCTUARY’s European tour starts with a very special headline show in London before they join the mighty OVERKILL for a run of mainland shows. The trek will end with two headlining gigs in Greece.
SANCTUARY’s comeback album, The Year The Sun Died, was released in October 2014 via Century Media.
