He noted that "I Have Decided To Leave The Steevi Jaimz Band to focus 100% with Bai Bang."

 

There is no bad blood apparently, and he has wished his former band mates the best for the future.

"I wish Steevi, Danny and Andi the best of luck in the future, I love you guys. I wanna thank all of you who have helped the band and helped us at our gigs. Ian, Pet, GlammyDave, Ashley and the rest of you."

As previously reported, former drummer Ace Finchum also left the band recently, and has joined the Gypsy Pistoleros.

Finchum had been a member of the Welsh glam legends Tigertailz, both with original singer Steevi Jaimz and continuing with the band following Jaimz's departure and the recruiting of Kim Hooker, playing on both Young and Crazy and the classic Berzerk albums. 

Finchum was also part of Jaimz's reuninted incarnation of the band which last year lost the rights to tour under the Tigertailz name. Shortly afterwards it was announced that he had left the now renamed Steevi Jaimz Band.

Leeroy had departed the band just prior to the announcement that they had signed a deal with Blastzone Entertainment for the US distribution of their album Para Siempre which is set for release in July via Nightmare Records.

The band have also announced that a limited run of 500 copies of the album will be released on Red Vinyl to coincide with the albums US release.

The Pistoleros are scheduled to start a US tour in June, which will run until the 9th August, and include a headline performance at this years Rocklahoma Festival.
