Our bassist and friend Everett Groves has announced he will be leaving Portrait of a Drowned Man after one last show with us Friday, August 8 at the Red Herring Lounge (Red Room).

Everett played his first show with us at the Duluth Homegrown Music Festival in spring of 2015 and has been writing and performing with us since. Our first full-time bassist, Everett expanded our sound immensely and jumped right into learning our back catalog while writing new songs with us. We hope to record an EP of songs Everett was involved in writing.

As some of you know, Everett moved to Minneapolis a while ago and will be focusing on school full-time in the fall. I’m sure he’ll pop up in another band in the future - he’s just too damn good not to. As for us, we do intend on recruiting another bass player and already have been talking with someone we’re really looking forward to jamming with. We’ll keep you posted.

✌,

- Paul + Justin + Ken + Aaron
