Martin Orford, IQ's keyboard player since 1981, will leave the band after 26 years. Fortunately, there are no hard feelings, Martin just feels it is time to go and do something else.
Martin's final appearance with IQ will be at the Pierre-Péladeau Center in Montreal on 16th September 2007. He is currently also still involved with the new studio album although the release date of that album has been pushed back. IQ is now looking for a new keyboard player.
A full statement from Martin and the band is on
IQ's website.
