SHIELDS guitarist George Christie passes away

It is with heavy hearts that we inform you of the passing of SHIELDS guitarist GEORGE CHRISTIE on January 31st, 2018.

The band just released a statement to the public:

"There is no easy way to say this.

On the 31st of January our guitarist George Christie took his own life. He was the most empathetic, kind and generous person we ever met in our lives and we were lucky to call him our best friend and fellow band member.
We don’t want to disclose any more information about his passing out of respect for his family, please don’t ask. Those who need to know, know.

We will have more to say once time has passed.

Thank you
Sam, Joe, Alex, Lawrence."

We ask that you please respect that the band won't be available for questions or interviews right now.
