Said guitarist/vocalist Mike Cummings in an official statament: "It is with heavy hearts that we are forced to drop off our tour to and from SXSW with our brothers Lo-Pan, but due to a serious medical emergency we will be unable to continue past March 12. We are deeply sorry to be missing these shows and the hang sessions that always follow. Seems like the motto has never rang more true than now......we drop out to live."
