Mushroomhead will return to the road with a full slate of dates this spring, but they'll be doing so minus one of their vocalists. Jeffrey Hatrix (aka Jeffrey Nothing) has issued a statement announcing that he's leaving the group.

"I am coming to you today with a heavy heart to announce that I am leaving Mushroomhead," Hatrix said in a statement. "It is a decision that I did not make easily, but one I made for reasons that are best for me as an artist and musician at this juncture in my career."

The vocalist went on to thank "the craziest, fucking loyal and amazing fans" for the "once in a lifetime privilege" of performing for them while touring and recording with the group.

With Jeffrey Nothing exiting the band, that leaves the band with J. Mann as their sole vocalist. The band has employed as many as three vocalists at one time, with Waylon Reavis leaving the band in 2015. Jackie LaPonza has been a touring member of the group in recent years adding vocals for the band as well. Drummer Steve "Skinny" Felton is the lone band member who has been a constant since their start back in 1993.

While it is not known what the lineup will look like, the band is expected to play a one-off show March 17 at Music Lynxx in Mentor-on-the-Lake, Ohio before returning to the road in earnest in late April, kicking off a lengthy trek with Vyces, Gabriel and the Apocalypse, Ventana and Blood Sun. Dates for the run can be seen below.
