Shora McVicar (above, left), who until recently comprised half the band, has left Honeyblood.
In a statement released on Facebook, Stina Tweedale/the rest of Honeyblood says:
"We’re sad to announce that after much deliberation Shona is leaving the band and moving on to other endeavours. All live dates and activity will remain as scheduled. We are excited to welcome the awesome Cat Myers to the drums as of tomorrow's gig in Leeds (The Brudenell Social Club) and all shows going forward!

The announcement comes after the cancellation of the band's Newcastle and Sheffield shows.
The rest of the shows are due to go on.
