After an amazing European tour, right after the last show band leader Geoff Thorpe suffered a serious accident in Cham, Germany. Walking back to the band apartment in total darkness, Geoff fell and severely broke his right shoulder.

Geoff said: "I couldn't see a thing, it was so dark! There was no light...just a black night. Next thing I knew I was on the ground, don't even know what I tripped over. After about 10 minutes Chalice heard me calling for help. The guys helped me so much and Peter Lehan, our amazing guitar tech, called an ambulance and stood by me the whole time. I broke my right shoulder badly enough to require surgery with a long rehabilitation time."

Geoff is now recovering and as a result, the full U.S. tour originally set for Aug 20-Sept 21, 2025, will be rescheduled to 2026.

The both videos the band has released so far reached over 200.000 views until now. Thanks from the band for all the love and support - the ball keeps rolling.

See you on the road in 2026!
