Jonny Craig Kicked Out of Emarosa

by Ryan Minic | Apr 11, 2011

Emarosa frontman Jonny Craig has been kicked out of the band, reports Alternative Press.

In February, Craig checked into a detox treatment facility in North Hollywood, CA, just weeks prior to Dance Gavin Dance’s US tour, and a week after his MacBook scam went public.

“My state of mind was completely shot and obviously my decision making skills were heavily impaired due to my drug use,” Craig said in a statement regarding the MacBook scam.

In an exclusive Ryan’s Rock Show interview, Dance Gavin Dance guitarist Will Swan admitted that Craig has a history of stealing from band members.

Emarosa has yet to announce a replacement vocalist. Former Tides Of Man vocalist Tilian Pearson filled in for Craig during his time spent in detox.
