The band likewise broke the birds-of-a-feather news by posting a statement on social media, writing, "There has been a lot going on these days, and we'd like to take a moment to address a change happening within the band. Over the last few months, we've had some really difficult internal conversations that have unfortunately resulted in Ben's departure."
