Guns N’ Roses Announces New Drummer Amidst International Tour Preparation

As Guns N’ Roses gears up for a new international tour, the band is undergoing some changes. Last month, drummer Frank Ferrer, who had been with the group for almost 20 years, announced his departure. Ferrer was the band’s longest-serving drummer, and his exit was described as amicable by the bandmates.

The band released a statement on Instagram expressing their gratitude towards Ferrer. The statement read: “Guns N’ Roses announce the amicable exit of Frank Ferrer. The band thanks Frank for his friendship, creativity, and sturdy presence over the past 19 years, and wish him success in the next chapter of his musical journey.”

Ferrer first joined Guns N’ Roses in June 2006 and played a crucial role in anchoring the rhythm section during various tours, including recent ones featuring the reunited trio of Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan. His final performance with the band took place on November 5, 2023, in Mexico.

Shortly after Ferrer’s departure, Guns N’ Roses announced Isaac Carpenter, the former drummer for Loudermilk and Gosling, as their new drummer. Carpenter’s addition to the band comes as they prepare for their upcoming international tour, which is highly anticipated by fans around the world.

With these changes in the lineup, Guns N’ Roses is ready to embark on their next musical journey with a renewed energy and excitement. Fans can expect nothing short of an electrifying performance from the iconic rock band as they continue to captivate audiences with their timeless music and electrifying stage presence.
