With just a few months before the bands Parahoy! cruise – the bands first scheduled performance in 2016 so far – Paramore have announced that bassist Jeremy Davis has left the band with immediate effect.
With Josh Farro and Zac Farro having left the band in 2010, Paramore are now left with only one founding member; Hayley Williams, of course.
A statement on Facebook told us:
“These last few years have held some of the most fulfilling moments we’ve had yet… as people, as friends, and as a band. The Self-Titled era was one that we know woul be important for us but also one we’d eventually have to move on from. In moving forward, there is growth, pain, and change… and sometimes the change is not at all what you hoped for.”
They band go on to say:
“Jeremy is no longer going to be in the band with us. To be honest, this has been really painful. After taking time to consider how to move foward, we ultimatelyfound that we really do believe Paramore can and should continue on. And so we will.”
It will be interesting to see who will replace another founding member and also interesting to hear the new direction, or ‘growth’ as it’s been put, that the band are heading in.
