Ex-Paramore Stars Josh And Zac Farro Reunite In New Band

February 22, 2011
Ex-Paramore Stars Josh And Zac Farro Reunite In New BandFormer Paramore members and brothers Josh and Zac Farro have been reunited in the band Novel American.

Josh launched the group earlier this month, but it has now been announced that his brother is also part of the line-up on drums.

He is set to replace Tyler Ward, who has dropped out to focus on family and non-profit work.

"I feel like to stay on board half-hearted is only going to hurt both them and I," he said, adding that he would support the group on "a friendship level".

Despite his role in Novel American, Zac Farro has assured fans that he will continue to work with his other group, Half Noise.

The brothers quit Paramore in December, but the Hayley Williams-fronted group has vowed to continue.
