Yellowcard Lose Member

artist: yellowcard date: 10/18/2007 category: general music news

Yellowcard Bassist Pete Mosley has given the band a pinkslip (again).

The band made the announcement Wednesday on their official site and there is no word yet on who will replace Pete in the group, that is unless he changes his mind again and rejoins them.

Here is what they had to say:

"Hello everyone, We wanted to let you know that I have chosen to leave Yellowcard and pursue other endeavors. It has been an honor creating music together and I want to wish them the very best in everything they put their hands to. its been a blessing to have been able to travel the world and perform music.

"I would like to thank everyone who has supported us through all these years and will continue to support yellowcard. Thanks, Peter"

According to Wikipedia this isn't the first time that Pete has decided to pursue other endeavors. Here is a brief overview of his career with Yellowcard: "In 2002, Yellowcard's first bass player, Warren Cooke, left the band due to personal reasons. The band then asked an old friend, Pete Mosely from Inspection 12, to play bass for them.

"During the recording of Ocean Avenue, Pete left, citing personal problems. The band began the search again for a new bass player and found Alex Lewis. In the middle of the band's tour in support of Ocean Avenue, Pete Mosely returned from his semi-retirement and asked if he could rejoin. Because Mosely had been an integral part of the writing for Ocean Avenue and had been friends with most of the band's members since high school, Lewis was asked to leave and Mosely was reinstated as the bass player."

Thanks for the info to Antimusic.com.

Hope this means Inspection 12 reunion.

I12 is an amazing pop/punk band. Check them out.

Meh. A lot of integral members have been leaving bands lately [aside from vocalists.]

Brown from Sum41 [yeah, that was a long time ago, but I'm still saying it]
Fred from Taking Back Sunday
and now this.

Not a huge fan of any of the bands above, but from what I've heard, the people they've lost were definitely important to the sound.

With that aside, maybe a new bass player would influence the sound perhaps?

But, seeing as how bass players aren't usually the most important members, I'd be somewhat surprised if that were the case.

Bass players are pretty important to the sound. you may not notice but if they suck they stand out. make everything sound a bit off. You can't always tells its the bass though.
