Black Tide explain reason for Nuñez departure

Black Tide bassist Zakk Sandler has issued an update explaining why guitarist Alex Nuñez (pictured second right) left the band earlier this year.

“Alex had different ideas as to the direction that we are going and wasn't happy with the style," writes Sandler. "We made a mutual decision and felt that it would be best if we changed members now instead of years later and avoided stupid amounts of drama. He is still a close friend and we wish him all the luck in the world toward future endeavours.

"We have our very close friend Austin Diaz playing guitar for us; he is a great new addition to our group and a nice breath of fresh air to the dynamic that is Black Tide,” he adds. “We hope you all love and welcome him as much as we do.”
