Weatherbox guitarist Lowell Heflin has left the band. The band provided some sort of explanation, though it appears that he has formed a new band:

Lowell Heflin has left us due to the gravitional pull of Mars in the 12th house of Aquarius. He has been stretched across the galaxy in a spiral shape with no one but a dog at his side. Rejoice and lament Lowell's dissapearance from current realities. His band is where it is at: We Are Lanterns.

Lowell has had an interesting time with the band, particularly in Nashville where the guitarist was attacked for intervening when two men made racist comments in front of him towards another person.

The band has filled Heflin's space, recruiting Japandi guitarist George Pritzker.
