Filed under: Americana, Bluegrass, Country NewsFort Wort band Cadillac Sky's lead singer and mandolin player, Bryan Simpson has announced his departure from the band after eight years. He will be replaced by Georgia folk singer Levi Lowery, who plays for Southern Ground Records, and has been a fan and friend of the band for several years.
Bryan's decision to leave the Nashville-by-way-of-Texas-based bluegrass quintet was based on religious reasons that grew from "a relentless stirring in his soul" over the past year.
"Three years ago, I would have never imagined this day anywhere in my near future," says Bryan. "But that was before Jesus Christ turned my life upside down and made me forever His in the spring of 2008. Since then He has continued to devour my life and everything in it. Daily, my desire for Him grows. The longing for more time spent in complete devotion to Him, combined with a desire to be more mobile in my faith has led me to this decision."
Bryan asks in his written statement for the understanding of "his great family of fans."
