Big news for Alestorm and Wisdom fans! Wisdom's guitarist Máté Bodor will take a break from his original band to support the British folk metal band Alestorm with their upcoming live concerts. The news come after Daniel "Dani" Evans, former guitarist of Alestorm, had left the band earlier this year.

With that said, Bodor will not be able to fulfill his duties with Wisdom at the moment, and ex- Battle Beast guitarist, Anton Kabanen, has agreed to take the responsibility of filling the gap created, and play with the Hungarian metallers on their upcoming shows.

Wisdom shared on their official website the following statement: "Mate had the opportunity to join British band Alestorm, so he won't be performing with Wisdom on the coming festival shows. We will miss him and wish him best of luck for the summer. So during our festival gigs you will not see Mate with us, you will see however our good friend, former guitarist and songwriter of Battle Beast, Anton Kabanen! So as we are playing with him maybe you will hear some Battle Beast songs as well."

As for Alestorm, they explained: "The keen-eyed amongst you may have noticed from our recent festival appearances that guitarist Daniel Evans is no longer with Alestorm. We would like to thank Dani for his many years as a member of this band, and we wish him every success with all future ventures! Furthermore, we are delighted to introduce you to our new guitarist Mr. Máté Bodor, whom you can watch being a tremendous bighead in this little video. We cordially invite you all to come along to some festivals this summer and throw sausages at him. Cheers, Christopher, Gareth, Elliot and Peter."
