Exodus guitarist Gary Holt has announced via his Instagram that he's given up alcohol. Holt said his new sobriety comes from a year of reflection over the pandemic, as well as years of partying.
"Day one for me, here I go. This last year has been one in which I’ve come to realize the drinking needs to go. Been a long party for me but it doesn’t feel like a party anymore. I’m not perfect and the booze has crept up on me. Here’s to feeling clear and lucid from here on out??"
Exodus will release their new album Persona Non Grata this November. The band will also play a benefit show on July 17 at One The Y in Sacramento, CA for drummer Tom Hunting, who was recently diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma.
