The Beaches have announced that drummer Eliza Enman-McDaniel will be unable to perform at the next six scheduled shows on their tour itinerary while healing from a wrist injury. She'll be replaced in the lineup by Valley's Karah James. 

Our current Exclaim! cover stars shared the news on Instagram today, writing, "Quick lil announcement for anyone coming to our upcoming shows over the next couple weeks, due to a drumming related injury unfortunately Eliza won't be able to perform with us. This was a very tough decision and wasn't made lightly, but at this point we have no choice but to let her heal this injury in order to come back full force and play as many shows as possible for you guys."

They continued, "On the bright side, our good friend Karah from @thisisvalley will be sitting in and playing the following shows with us. We are SO lucky to have her and we are forever grateful she could do us such a massive favour. You guys are fun for a treat if you get to see her!!"
