Paramore Guitarist Quits Band
Josh Farro takes time out to arrange his marriage.
Paramore guitarist Josh Farro has pulled out of the band’s Asian tour to concentrate on his impending nuptials. The six-stringer and brother of drummer Zac, made the news public on the band’s blog.
“I need to take some time off to plan the wedding and everything”, said Josh. “Because of that I will not be joining the guys on the pacific rim tour coming up”.
Farro will be temporarily replaced by Justin York, brother of second Paramore guitarist Taylor.
It isn’t the first time Paramore’s touring plans have gone awry. The band pulled a European tour in February 2008, citing “personal issues” as a reason to regroup in the US.
Farro, however, maintains he will be returning to the fold.
“I will be back soon! Don't worry! :) I love you guys”, wrote the guitarist “Thank you so much for all of your support and love. What you guys do for me and the band is out of this world. No one has fans like us. I shall see you all very soon”.
