Reigning Sound Split
"December kicks off with the thoroughly sad news that the Reigning Sound have called it a day, with only a few lucky Scandinavians having had the chance to see them grace the stage. Here's what Greg Cartwright had to say: "The Reigning Sound will end Dec. 31st for all practical purposes. A little over 3 months ago we lost our keyboard player which forced us to scrap the new record we had just recorded with him and record a more guitar driven record. This worked in our favor as I think the new record could be our best yet. On top of this, My wife, my kids and myself are moving to North Carolina next Feb. Trying to keep a band together long-distance is hard. I know I've tried it several times. Me and the guys still get along and perhaps we may do a show here and there in the following year."
