Mike leaves Evergrey

25 July, 2006 by MetalAges

Michael Håkansson has decided to part ways with Evergrey. The new bass player will be the band's long-time friend Fredrik Larsson.

Michael has left the following message for all the Evergrey fans:

"Dear friends and fans of Evergrey.

After a long time of consideration and many, many hours of thinking I now, with sadness, announce my departure from the band.

I have been a part of the band for seven years and during that time I have experienced so much and I have seen more than I ever thought I would. But now it is time for me to say goodbye.

My reason for doing this is that I feel a strong urge to do something different in music. This is the one and only reason and it's 100% my own decision.

I want to thank the boys for all the good times we have had together thoughout the years. I wish them the best of all success, something they truly deserve and without doubt will achieve.

Take care everyone /Mikey"
