Machine Head settle with former bassist
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 7 July 2014
Machine Head have reached an out of court settlement with former bassist Adam Duce, who sued the band earlier this year claiming that he was owed hundreds of thousands of dollars.
In total, Duce was seeking $1.8 million – $800,000 in relation to the management of the bands finances, and a further $1 million in damages for alleged defamation in a blog post written by frontman Robb Flynn. Duce claimed that in his post, written after his split from the band, Flynn was “directly attacking my work ethic”.
Duce has now dropped his lawsuit entirely, having reached a settlement with his former bandmates and their management. Details of the deal are confidential.
