Matt Heafy from Trivium sits out the remaining tour dates
Matt Heafy, lead singer for heavy metal band Trivium, put out a message stating he will be sitting out the remainder of the current tour. He has a very good reason though, Matt Heafy and his wife are expecting twins!! Their expected date of arrival to this world might just be happening sooner than expected. So, as any excited father-to-be would, Heafy is heading home to be with his wife to welcome the little rockers.
Heafy posted a video update apologizing to fans for his departure and noted to have no fear the vocalists of the bands on the tour with Trivium, Light The Torch‘s Howard Jones & Avatar’s Johannes Eckerström To Fill Inare going to step up and help fill in. Additionally, Youtuber Jared Dines will fill in for some tracks.
