In an emotional statement, Power Trip have announced their return to the live arena four year's on from the tragic loss of vocalist Riley Gale. The full statement reads:
"We know this can't be undone, and it will always remain part of us. We have thought deeply about the future of Power Trip and what always comes back to us is that this band was founded on resilience, perseverance, and most importantly: a love for the music and for all of the people it has brought us closer to along the way.
We'll never have the words to convey our appreciation of the enduring support we've received over the years, and we feel as though the time is right to get back on stage for all of you who've been there throughout our existence as a band."
The band will be joined by vocalist Seth Gilmore, previously of Skourge and Fugitive. Commenting on his own involvement, Seth noted, "I'm honoured to have the opportunity to contribute to the legacy of Power Trip and deliver these songs to the fans of past and current generations. I would not be who I am today without the massive influence that both the band and its members have had on my life, and I look forward to celebrating their work alongside them while giving it my all to honour the spirit of Riley's memory."
