After a troubling fall out with their previous bassist, Coheed and Cambira have annouced a new man on bass and a summer tour with Iron Maiden.
Last summer Michael Todd, Coheed & Cambria’s founding bassist, was arrested for holding up Wallgreens at gunpoints, hours before he was supposed to open for Soundgarden. The band has moved on without him and has recently announced who their new bassist is. His name is Zach Cooper and has been a longtime fan of the band. It looks like he will be a welcome addition to the band.
Coheed is also opening for Iron Maiden in their North American tour. The tour dates are listed below.
