8.9.2017 SAD NEWS TO REPORT...
Hello beautiful folks -
​
So we have a bit of sad news today. Our beloved band mate and sista-from-another-mista, Jane Park, will be leaving the band to pursue another chapter in her life.
​
While we're incredibly sad to see our friend go, the band fully understands and supports her decision. Jane has been such an essential part of this whole thing from day one, so we just want to take this time to say 'thank you'. It will not be easy to find someone to fill such large, talented shoes - not only did she bring an orchestral element to the band with the violin, she also played keys and sang. Whatever the song needed, Jane was there to fill that gap. We will miss having Jane around to share our experiences with, someone to bring carrots to band practice, and someone to keep us messy boys in check on the road. We will forever be thankful for the musical memories we've shared.
​
We have one more final performance with Jane coming up and we will keep you posted on that when the time comes; but for now please see a message from Jane herself:
