Words by Nic Angeles

 

Testament have unfortunately had to share the news that Chuck Billy and his wife, Tiffany, have tested positive for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), and so have some of the members of the band’s crew.

An official statement has been released by the Testament camp, explaining that following their return from the European dates of their Bay Area Strikes Back Tour with Exodus and Death Angel, some of them have been feeling unwell.

“We wanted to reach out to everyone who has been supporting us and expressing concern to inform you that we are doing what’s right, and what’s safe, and have all been quarantining ourselves since our return home; since before we were even tested,” assures the band. “We are of course concerned for our families, our friends, our crew, our fellow musicians, and our fans. We’ve reached out to support our fellow Bay Area Bands who are also being proactive in their own camps, staying quarantined and safe, and will speak on their individual situations if and when they are ready to.”
