Cute Is What We Aim For lose drummer

Fueled By Ramen band Cute Is What We Aim For have announced the departure of their drummer Tom Falcone.

Tom has posted the following statement:

"To all our fans who have had questions about my leaving the band -

First off, I want to thank you for supporting me during my time with

the Cute, as well as now. I also want to thank you all for

congratulating me on my decision, and your words of encouragement have

meant the world to me. Let me put the rumors to rest for you - I simply

left the band because the personality conflicts and daily drama made it

impossible for me to live a peaceful, happy life. I made it clear to

Shaant that I would be leaving and explained why. I assure you that no

one came looking for me. Shaant, Dave, and Jeff know fully and without

a doubt that they left me no choice. There should be no question

whatsoever. I will miss touring, playing my drums daily and the

incredibly wonderful people I met along the way.

Thank you all again, because without you, I would have never made it this long.

I am comfortable with my decsion and am confident that I did all that I

could, working to the best of my ability. I am walking away with my

self respect and my dignity in tact.

Good luck to Cute, I wish you nothing but the best."

Cute Is What We Aim For released their second album Rotation in June.
