Citing his health, guitarist Stefan Kaufmann has announced his departure from U.D.O.
He wasn’t more specific about his health issues, but we’re hoping he makes a full recovery from whatever it is.
For those of you are oblivious, U.D.O.’s a German metal band fronted by erstwhile Accept frontman Udo Dirkschneider.
It is said Stefan will still work with the band behind the scenes at his Roxx studio. He also plans to produce other bands, so that’s cool.
Meanwhile, U.D.O. has started pre-production for their next record, and will be on the hunt for a new guitar player.
Again, Stefan — get better, dude. We look forward to learning of your recovery.
