The Acacia Strain have added two new guitarists to their lineup.

The band said in a statement today, “It is with excitement and zero negativity that Massachusetts’ based The Acacia Strain announce the addition of two new full time members, Devin Shidaker and Richard Gomez, both on guitar. After many years of service, Daniel ‘DL’ Laskiewicz will no longer be writing music for The Acacia Strain and we wish him the best in all of his future endeavors.”

They added, “Richie and Devin bring experience and passion to the table and offer a forward thinking perspective to this band which has been wanted and needed for some time. We plan on getting started right away with the writing process to give you some new songs soon, and of course a new album.”
