Back to a 3-Piece

Hello Everyone,
It is with regret that I announce that Andy Mark will no longer be playing with Story of the Sea.  Let me start by saying that Andy is a great person and a phenomenal musician. He will be missed by all of us as well as the fan/s.  Andy was in a place where he needed to make some really tough life decisions and was unable to pass up an opportunity that arose for him. Unfortunately, those choices put him in direct conflict with our goals. It was really a case of bad circumstances combined with bad timing. He was a big fan of SOTS that turned into a crucial part of our live show. We wish him well in both his musical career as well as his personal life.

So it is back to the three piece for us. We will work hard to fill the gap left by Andy’s departure and you will be able to see the fruits of that labor in April at the following shows.

April 1st: Mankato Minnesota, The What’s Up for the POST HOLIDAY EXTRAVAGANZA IV

April 2nd: Duluth Minnesota, Luce, with Atlas Mtns and Jenny Dalton.

Also, we hope to have our instrumental album done for a release show by this summer. It is in the mixing stage and we are excited!

And one other thing….I am going to be a Dad in August with my beautiful wife Jessica, for those who did not know.  I am not going to lie, there was band pressure to have a child so that Oscar Prince had someone to be in a band with in the year 2026

I hope to see you all at these upcoming out of town shows.
