Panic! At the Disco bassist Dallon Weekes leaves the band

Panic! At the Disco bassist Dallon Weekes has confirmed he has left the band in a post today on Instagram. Weekes has been playing with P!ATD since 2009 when bassist Jon Walker and founding guitarist Ryan Ross both left the band. He started as a touring member, before eventually working his way to an official member of the group and helped write several songs on the 2013 album ‘Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die!’. Weekes will now move on to his solo project  called I Don’t Know How But They Found Me. Yeah, that’s a pretty cool name for a band.

For the last eight years I’ve had the incredible opportunity to perform in Panic! At The Disco. While I’m sad to announce that my time with Panic! has come to an end, I’m excited to continue making music with my new project ‘I Don’t Know How But They Found Me’ @idkhow . I’m grateful for the chance I’ve had to be part of Panic! At The Disco for nearly a decade. I will always consider myself indebted to those who made me feel welcome to be a part of P!ATD. You changed my life. Thank you all.
