Mike Lare played bass on Ringworm's 2007 record The Ninth Circle: The Venomous Grand Design and the 2011 record Scars. He's now rejoined the band on guitar after the departure of guitarist Matt Sorg, who's been with Ringworm since 2001.
“So, a few might know, but we are very happy to, formally, announce the Return of Mike Lare back into the Ringworm family. You might know Mike from his heavy hitting bass thunder on The Venomous Grand Design, or our Scars records. But now, the Lare-Wolf is back, and this time, he joins Matt Sorg on 2nd guitar.
Mike‘s a Columbus guy, so it seems only fitting that his first show back with us will be in his hometown, amongst friends and great bands. So come out Friday, August 9th to Ruby Tuesday Live in Columbus, OH, help us kick off our “Death Becomes My Voice Tour“, bang you head and help welcome our furry friend back to the stage with us. We couldn’t be happier to have this guy back in the pack.
Head to the ringworm fb page for more show info, times, address, etc.
And a big shout out to our former guitarist Mark Witherspoon. Thanks, Mark. He’s a great player and a great dude, and we wish him nothing but the best..”
Catch Ringworm on tour with Goatwhore this August, and make sure you grab a copy of their new album Death Becomes My Voice out now.
