By Rebekah WilsonBBC News NI
Two members of Snow Patrol are leaving The Band , but The Other three will continue as a trio.
On Facebook, frontman Gary Lightbody paid tribute to Jonny Quinn and Paul Wilson and said The Band wishes them nothing but happiness and success.
The Remaining members are Gary Lightbody , Nathan Connolly and Johnny Mcdaid .
They confirmed a new Snow Patrol album, their eighth studio record, is still set for release next year.
The News comes just weeks after
'We Are heartbroken'Gary Lightbody , from Bangor in Northern Ireland , posted a heartfelt tribute to the two band members:
" We Are heartbroken they have decided to leave us but we wish them nothing but happiness, success, joy, compassion and everything they want in all their future endeavours. "
Lightbody said The Band would continue as a trio: " Nate, JMD and myself will continue with SP and there will be a new album next year but more news of that will come at an appropriate time".
Jonny Quinn had been The Band 's drummer since 1997.
Lightbody said he was " More Than a drummer". With a background in band management and gig promotion he also took up The Role of " manager for us [Snow Patrol ] many times during the Last Quarter century, " He Said .
Lightbody added The Drummer 's nickname was " thunderclap" because he " hit the Snare Drum so hard he was prone to smash right through the drumskin".
Paul Wilson joined The Band in 2005 as the bassist but Lightbody said he " played every instrument so bass was maybe a little restrictive for his many talents".
Lightbody added Wilson was " one of the funniest guys I've ever known".
Paying homage to the two band members Lightbody said they deserved their own separate posts for a " proper and individual send off".
