The band will be playing two shows in July to celebrate outgoing guitarist Darran Smith's time with the band.
The welsh quintet intend to play breakthrough album "Casually Dressed And Deep In Conversation" in it's entirety. As drummer Ryan Richards explains - "As sad as we are to see Darran leave, these shows will be guaranteed to give him a great sendoff. We played 'Casually Dressed..' in it's entirety when we toured it back in 2003/4 and never really planned to do that again, but obviously with it being Darran's last shows it seems like a perfect opportunity to play the record for the final time. Don't miss it!"
Darren is leaving the band after this years's Sonisphere Festival to concentrate on family life, while FFAF are reshuffling the ranks in time for the release of album #5. Current bassist Gavin Burroughs is moving to guitar, whilst Ex-Hondo Maclean/The Future bassist Richard Boucher has joined on four string.
Darran Smith's final dates with the band are as follows...
Thu 22nd July - Cardiff University
Fri 23rd July - O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire, London
Tickets go on general sale this Thursday (May 20th).
