Bij het Zweedse Evergrey is bassist Michael Håkansson opgestapt. Hij is inmiddels vervangen door Fredrik Larsson, die we nog kennen van Hammerfall.

Michael Håkansson meldt op de band's website het volgende:

"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"
