Guitarist Jay Torblaa Steps Away From Balmora After Being Accused Of Grooming A Minor

Balmora have revealed that guitarist Jay Torblaa will be stepping away from the band. This news comes after he was recently accused of grooming a minor. The group issued the following statement:

“In the past few days we’ve seen the evidence and screen shots of the behavior of our guitarist engaging with someone underage. We the other four members Danny, Paul, Colin and Chaz don’t fuck with this at all obviously. Jay will be stepping away from the band and our summer tour will continue on as planned. We’re sorry for what seems like the lack of transparency. Just trying to figure out how to navigate this and continue with all the shows we have booked and planned to play. All of our love goes out to the promoters, our tour mates and everyone who fucks with us on some real shit.”
