Paramore Part ways with Guitarist

Tennessee outfit PARAMORE have parted ways with rhythm guitarist Hunter Lamb. The band have issued the following statement on the matter:

"The past few months have brought incredible things our way and have also forced us to face some of the hardest times we've ever been through as a band... both professionally and personally. At some points, we had no clue how we would all come through or if we'd even make it far enough to record the album. And even though we made our way through many of those things, we weren't able to come through the way we had pictured it.

"We have parted ways with our friend and guitarst for the past year, Hunter Lamb. We wish Hunter the best in all that he does next and in his engagement and marriage. It was a blessing getting to know him on the road and we were lucky to have him in the band with us. Obviously, we've been through more than a couple member changes and we are sure it's probably frustrating and confusing to you guys and we aren't really sure what more to say. Sometimes, things just don't work out the way you thought they would.

"Right now, we feel really great as a four piece band. But who knows what the future might hold, as we are always full of these types of surprises.
Hopefully, these changes will better prepare us for the year(s) to
come."
