Frontman Freddy Cricien also commented:

“If you haven’t already heard through other channels, our bro @hoyaroc357 is retiring from MB. To be clear, there is no bad blood or animosity. We are simply moving in different directions and that’s ok…it happens… it’s all love!

On behalf of the guys and myself, we wish Hoya nothing but the best with any and all future endeavours. He has our full support! The imprint he left on this band will never be over looked. The experiences we’ve shared on and off stage, and the memories we’ve made will always be appreciated and cherished. So, salute.. to a MB OG!!

Just in case anyone is wondering… Madball is not going anywhere! We have a lot of cool things in the works including new music. We are not slowing down… we are revving up!”
