Three Members Quit Woe is Me

by | Mar 8, 2012

Woe is Me have lost three members — vocalist Michael Bohn, bassist Cory Ferris, and keyboardist Ben Ferris.

Ben Ferris told Altpress.com in a statement, “It doesn’t come with any ease to announce, but the three of us have left Woe, is me.”

“Our differences were just too vast on so many levels: Musical, personal/moral, and professional/business. It came to a point where we could either continue on the path they saw fit, or we could create our own path and find happiness in our own ways.”

“We have nothing but gratitude for all of the fans. Every handshake, high-five, hug, pat on the back, and kind word from you guys and gals means the absolute world to us.”

Meanwhile, the remaining members of the band stated that “breaking up, is out of the question. Every tour, & every plan will be followed through with full heart.”

A video announcement regarding the lineup adjustments is expected to be released tomorrow.
