U.K. progressive rockers HAKEN have parted ways with guitarist Charlie Griffiths and bassist Conner Green.

Griffiths and Green’s exits from HAKEN were announced in a social media post a few days ago (Monday, January 5). The band wrote:

“It’s with heavy hearts that we announce the departure of Charlie Griffiths and Conner Green from HAKEN. We are tremendously grateful for the time we’ve spent together, creating music and touring the world, achieving things we thought weren’t possible.

“Both Charlie and Conner are irreplacable, as musicians and individuals, and they have given so much to make this band what it is today. We cannot thank them enough, but we wish them all the best with any future endeavours. They will always be a part of the HAKEN family.

“New music coming this year.”

Griffiths had been a member of HAKEN since 2008 and appeared on all of the band’s albums so far. Green joined HAKEN in 2014 as the replacement for the band’s original bassist Thomas MacLean.
