Tom Rowley replaces Tom Jarvis as the group's guitarist.
Reverend and the Makers guitarist Tom Jarvis has left the band and will be replaced by former Milburn strummer Tom Rowley, it has been reported.
Jon McClure, the group's frontman, told NME.com Jarvis has had enough and decided to part company with the collective.
He said their new member is an influential figure on the scene and will bring additional quality to the band's work.
"Tom Rowley is joining - he is cool and in lots of ways one of the guys who got the whole Sheffield scene started. People have love in their hearts for him up north … I want to get on album three straight away as he's a genius," McClure told the news provider.
A French Chaos, the group's second record, which features guitar work from Jarvis, will be released later this year.
Last month, Jon McClure began a petition on the official website of the prime minister's office against the use of form 696 by the police to monitor the clientele at festivals and shows.
The document fosters racial discrimination, the singer said.
