As reported, the band were forced to pull out of a gig on Saturday (May 14) when their lead singer was hospitalised. It was later confirmed that he had contracted intestinal flu.

“It was a painful and sad thing to have to cancel shows, we don’t really do that. I’d rather play deathly ill than not at all, but in this particular instance I was starting to go down to the ground.”

“I surf most days and I like to charge, but every now and then, the body is like, ‘You’re doing something wrong, either fix it or we’re gonna let you know about it’.” Earlier this month the band announced details of their new album ‘The Getaway’, set to be released on June 17.
