Evanescence Guitarist Returns
Guitarist Troy McLawhorn has returned to Evanescence, the band he left in 2008 to join Seether.
McLawhorn, who up until last month was part of Seether, announced last week that he had left the band to "pursue other interests" and is now working with Evanescence.
McLawhorn joined Evanescence in 2007, replacing original guitarist John LeCompt. His return to Evanescence was disclosed by Seether singer Shaun Morgan, who posted on Twitter: "Interesting news about our old guitarist. Can anyone guess? He went to another band". Morgan further hinted, "Little anti-Shaun club. Any more guesses?"
Morgan was alluding to Evanescence's Amy Lee, with whom he was in a relationship for two years.
"Just wanted you guys to hear it from me first", Morgan continued. "I am hurt and offended. We will go on and we will make ya'll proud."
Evanescence enter the studio next month to resume work on their fourth album. Music from previous sessions has been scrapped and the band is starting again from scratch. It will be Evanescence's first new music since "The Open Door" in 2006.
