Guitar player Dave Dalone leaves H.E.A.T.!

Some minutes ago the melodic rockers of H.E.A.T. announced that their guitarist Dave Dalone quit the band to pursue new musical challenges. It's the second leave of an original band member. Singer Kenny Leckremo left the band in 2010 already.
For now,  H.E.A.T. will continue as a five man band. The situation won't affect upcoming shows nor the upcoming recording of the fourth album, which is due to release in early 2014. Read the full statement from Dave below:

"I've always been a great fan of melodic rock. For me, H.E.A.T started out as the passion project of my dreams, and turned into the great and strong melodic rock band that it is today.

I want to thank each and everyone involved and all of the great fans that made this journey possible for me. I have been to places, met so many nice people, experienced great moments that will stay in my heart forever.

I leave this band because, I have always believed in the fact that you should always stay true to your heart and follow your dreams, no matter what! I still have great faith in H.E.A.T and nothing but love for all of the members in the band, they will always be my brothers

Thank you everyone and Keep on Dreaming".
