The firing come weeks after DWTS producers cut loose musical director, Harold Wheeler along with 28 members of his live backing band.
“Since season one, Harold and his band have performed brilliant music in our ballroom for our dancers and the American viewers at home,” BBC Worldwide and ABC said in a joint statement at the time. “We are grateful to him and his band for their amazing work and years of collaboration. We wish him the best of luck.” In a statement slamming the ABC series for its decision, American Federation of Musicians’ president Ray Hair said the band will be replaced with a small electronic band and sound recordings to “attract a younger demographic.”
