ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Aug. 18 (UPI) -- The Kentucky Christian rock band, Audio Adrenaline, is set to disband this fall due to lead singer Mark Stuart's failing voice.

The Anchorage (Alaska) Daily News said the four-man group has decided to call it quits this year rather than replace its lead singer, but its members will continue through their remaining scheduled summer performances.

"It got to a point where it was actually a medical problem for him. The doctors said 'If you want to be able to talk when you're 50, don't do this anymore,'" said Tyler Burkum, the band's guitarist. "At that point, you know, it's just a band."

On the top of the band's bill is Friday's performance at Atwood Concert Hall in Anchorage, Ala., with all proceeds going to a Haitian orphanage.

Audio Adrenaline's disbanding marks the end of a group that attempted to blur the lines between Christian and secular music since it first appeared on the music scene in 1991, the newspaper said.
