Drummer Grub Cooper leaves Fab 5 band to focus on himself

After half a century as the drummer and musical director for the 52-year-old legendary Fab 5 band, Astley 'Grub' Cooper has parted ways with that musical institution to focus on himself as a brand.

It has been one month since Cooper communicated his decision to his fellow band members and as he shared with the Weekend Star, although they were disappointed, Fab5 will continue like many other bands that have changed members without missing a beat.

He also shared that among his immediate projects is a tribute song to the Mighty Diamonds, which lost two of its three members a week apart in 2022.
