Throw The Fight Announce Lineup Change; Release New Single

The Minneapolis-based rock and metal act, Throw The Fight, has announced a new lineup and digital single. The band will carry on as a six piece and feature three guitarists. New members include Brian “Stitch” Foster, formerly of Lava Records band, Grade 8, on bass, Kevin Beck and Brooks Bohmbach, formerly of Minneapolis metal act, Saving One, on guitars, and Jeff Baustert, brother of original guitarist, Ryan Baustert, on drums.

According to Baustert, “We had some members that couldn’t continue to tour full time so it was time for a change. Not being able to tour simply isn’t an option for us. We belong on the road. It was a mutual decision between the former members and there is no bad blood at all. Having the new guys in the group is great. The vibe is extremely positive and we’re able to take things to another level musically with three guitarists.”

The group’s new single, “Bloodshot Eyes,” was released July 20, 2010 with band’s next full length following as soon as the fall months.
