Award-winning metal producer Joey Sturgis (The Devil Wears Prada/Miss May I/Of Mice And Men/the Acacia Strain/Attack Attack/Emmure/Oceano) has weighed in on the departure of Danny Worsnop from Asking Alexandria. Sturgis applied his golden touch to AA’s numerous releases, working with them closly, and he could be considered a confidant and friend to both parties.

 

Sturgis commented:

“Working with Asking Alexandria has always been a magical thing, we have always seemed to connect on a very deep level musically. I’ve been producing the band since the moment they stepped foot on american soil, and I am proud of it. When we first began to bring their songs to life, none of us knew what to expect and what would become of it; but the band had an amazing passion and fire that drove them straight to the top. Asking Alexandria has always had that fire, and will continue to have that fire! This is only the end of an early chapter, and the start to a new one. AA Family will be strong, and AA will live on”.
