Andrew Stockdale: Wolfmother Lineup Changes “Not My Fault”

Wolfmother frontman Andrew Stockdale insisted to Classic Rock Magazine writer Dave Ling that the Australian band’s revolving lineup isn’t because he’s a tyrant. “Being in a band offers so many different challenges. I have a good relationship with most people that have been in this band – but there are things you just can’t change,” Stockdale explained. “Two guys quit on me. The next drummer couldn’t handle the touring and wanted to stay at home. That’s not my fault.”

Previous Wolfmother members:
Chris Ross – quit citing “irreconcilable personal and musical differences”
Myles Heskett – quit citing “irreconcilable personal and musical differences”
Dave Atkins – left the band “to spend much-needed time at home with his family”
Aidan Nemeth – quit February 2012
Will Rockwell-Scott – quit February 2012

Current lineup:
Andrew Stockdale – vocalist
Ian Peres – bassist
Vin Steele – guitarist
Elliott Hammond – keyboardist
Hamish Rosser – drummer
