Fallujah clarifies the temporary lineup change for their live shows

Regarding the recent departure of their founding guitarist Scott Carstairs on their most recent tour, Fallujah has provided some explanation, as per theprp. As it happens, that circumstance stems from a schedule clash with Carstairs’ other band, Entheos. Fallujah has just started touring with Between the Buried and Me and Imperial Triumphant, while that group is preparing to go out with Jinjer and Crystal Lake. Fallujah revealed that former Fallujah guitarist Nico Santora (Darkest Hour) has been selected as a temporary live fill-in in response to Carstairs’ absence on May 28.

Some of you may have noticed that our guitarist & founding member @scott_carstairs isn’t with us for our US tour with @btbamofficial and @imperialtriumphant. Due to a prior commitment with his other band Entheos, we will instead be joined by our good friend & previous Fallujah member @nicosantora, who is also known for playing in Darkest Hour, The Faceless, Suicidal Tendencies, Lillake, and more. 

We fully support Scott in his decision to balance Fallujah with his other commitments, and we will be rejoining for all other shows including Loud as Hell fest and the Australian Shred Fest tour later this year. In the meantime, we hope that you’ll give a warm welcome to Nico and come see us shred together on the road 🎸
