Electric Callboy didnt waste any time finding a new drummer after longtime member David Friedrich announced his departure from the band. And they didn't just bring in anyone — stepping in behind the kit for the summer festival season is none other than Sum 41's Frank Zummo.

In news that has left many fans stunned, David Friedrich has officially parted ways with Electric Callboy after 13 years behind the drum kit. The announcement came quietly but landed loud, especially for those who’ve followed the band since their chaotic Eskimo Callboy beginnings. On May 18th, 2025 Electric Callboy issued this Press Release:

In news that has left many fans stunned, David Friedrich has officially parted ways with Electric Callboy after 13 years behind the drum kit. The announcement came quietly but landed loud, especially for those who've followed the band since their chaotic Eskimo Callboy beginnings.

"David Friedrich wasn't just a drummer for the band, he was part of its DNA. From the earliest breakdowns to the more recent dance-metal anthems, his presence was always felt. Whether you first saw him in a sweaty German club in 2012 or caught one of the band's huge festival sets in the last few years, Friedrichs tight, relentless drumming was a core part of what made the band tick."
