Author Flavia Andrade - 5.9.2023

The Acacia Strain have announced Matt Guglielmo as their new drummer, following Kevin Boutot‘s departure last July. The band’s vocalist Vincent Bennett recently commented on the lineup change:

I wrote a really long nice post re-welcoming Matt into the band and saying a bunch of nice things about him but I backspaced over all of it by mistake so I’ll make a caption he will love and understand:

MATT GOOD. MATT IN BAND. MATT PLAY DRUMS FOR US NOW. SAY HI MATT.

Guglielmo himself posted:

I’d like to announce with a very heavy heart, that I now sadly play drums for The Acacia Strain.
