Tony Gambino leaves BLESSED BY A BROKEN HEART

Glam-rockers Blessed By A Broken Heart have announced today that vocalist Tony Gambino will be leaving the band for personal reasons. Sam Ryder the current guitarist is stepping up to the mic to replace him.

Gambino has released a video statement explaining his decision, which is excerpted here:

“This is one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make. But I recently decided to leave the touring life so I can stay home with my family. With that said, I have some exciting news – I’m super stoked to announce that Sam Ryder is going to be stepping in as lead vocalist, and I couldn’t be more honored to have anyone else take my spot. Sam is a world class musician and vocalist and I have nothing but confidence in him.”

By filling the “vacant position” of singer from within, the international shred-metal group can ensure fans of a fluid, flawless transition into the next era of BLESSED BY A BROKEN HEART’s music. Driving that point home is the release of a previously unheard track, “Out of Control” – featuring vocals from the newly promoted Sam Ryder – that illustrates in no uncertain terms his talent and capability as the band’s new frontman.

A recent you tube video has been circulating, featuring Sam Ryder singing the bands track ‘out of control’. This video demonstrates that Sam is more then worthy of his new title. We will however miss Tony, as he has such a strong presence in the band.

“Tony is my best bud,” adds the Essex, UK-based Ryder. “Duty is calling him right now and he’s gotta do what he’s gotta do, but the show must go on. We have some great fans and they should know that I ain’t about to let anyone down! Come bang your heads and sing some rock n’ roll. That’s what this is all about, and believe me – we’re just getting started.

Tony later said on Facebook “Thank you everyone for the kind words. Leaving the band was a super difficult decision, but for my family, I know I made the right choice. Please keep supporting Blessed and the guys! ♥”
