Aaron Gillespie has left UnderOath.
We are taking this opportunity to sadly inform you the six of us have decided at the end of the current european tour, Aaron will no longer be playing in Underoath. This was not a decision made in haste but a thought out and prayed upon group agreement. It in no way effects any of the shows left on this tour. They will still be our best efforts and enjoyable experiences for all. For the future, Aaron will be pursuing other musical and ministry endeavors. As for the rest of us we will continue to work hard on the new Underoath record. We appreciate the love and support from everyone in the past and hope that all of us will continue to receive your support on our future paths. We love you guys. Tim, Grant, Aaron, James, Chris, and Spencer
Very interesting… I wonder if he has been spending too much time with The Almost or if its a combination of everything.
I’m not too sure…I imagine he wants to focus on The Almost or other projects. I don’t know how Underoath will be now though…I feel like he IS the band. Kind of like how Craig Owens WAS Chiodos. I guess we’ll see though.
Aaron wasn’t “the band” i think they would be in alot more trouble if timmy left. He is the one that writes the vast majority of UO’s material! Yeah Aaron was very good at what he did but it’s time to move on. Looking forward to the new stuff.
