Today the remaining two members of Paramore took to Facebook to announce that founding member and bassist Jeremy Davis will unfortunately be leaving the band. See the note issue by the band below:

“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 knew would 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. We’ve written and re-written this countless times and there’s just not a good way to put it… 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 forward, we ultimately found that we really do believe Paramore can and should continue on. And so we will.

We’re really thankful for the people who have helped see us through hard times before and what we’ve discovered is that those people are just as much a part of this as we will ever be. We’re hopeful for Paramore’s future and we’re also excited for what Jeremy’s going to do next. Thank you all for your support and your belief in us. It’s kept us going. We will see some of you really soon on Parahoy. If you’re not coming on the cruise, we will still see you in 2016.”

This means that lead singer Hayley Williams is the last remaining founding member of Paramore, with Jack and Zac Farro having left in 2010.

The first appearance of Paramore without bassist Jeremy Davis will be the Parahoy festival; which even without Davis will promise to be worth going to especially the uniqueness of the festival, with it being a cruise from March 4th – 9th 2016, sailing from Miami to Cozumel, Mexico.

Scottish band Chvrches are also set to join them on the cruise. All details for the festival can be found here.
