Alkaline Trio have announced that they have hired drummer Tosh Peterson to replace Atom Willard, who announced his departure from the group last month after joining in 2023.
Matt Skiba shared the news with the following message to fans, ""I met Tosh at Swingers a few months back for lunch to meet up and discuss the possibility of him playing in Alkaline Trio.
"Tosh's mom was also there who turned out to be a fellow history buff so her and I spent half the lunch talking about Churchill and the Miracle of Dunkirk while Tosh politely ate his fries. He later told Dan Andriano [of Alkaline Trio] that if we had had a problem with his mom coming to lunch he probably didn't want to play with us anyway.
"Apart from the absolute monster he is behind a drum kit he is just a lovely guy: kind, polite, enthusiastic, driven and hilarious. I told Dan I wouldn't want Tosh to play with us if he hadn't brought his mom. Tosh is a beautiful human being we're very excited to travel and play music with and a drummer we couldn't be more thankful to be able to welcome into our family."
