Pop-punk band Panic! at the Disco announced on Tuesday that they will be disbanding after their upcoming European tour. Lead singer Brendon Urie said that the decision was made in order to focus on his family, as he and his wife Sarah are expecting their first child later this year.
In a statement posted on Instagram, Urie wrote, “Sometimes a journey must end for a new one to begin. Growing up in Vegas I could’ve never imagined where this life would take me. So many places all over the world, and all the friends we’ve made along the way. The prospect of being a father and getting to watch my wife become a mother is both humbling and exciting. As part of an effort to ‘put my focus and energy on my family’, I am announcing that this upcoming European tour will be the last for Panic! at the Disco.”
The band, which formed in 2004, has released six studio albums, with their most recent, Pray for the Wicked, coming out in 2018. They have been nominated for multiple Grammy Awards and have won multiple MTV Video Music Awards.
The band’s upcoming European tour will be their last, but fans can still look forward to their final performance. Urie said, “We’ve been trying to keep it to ourselves, though some of you may have heard. We’re excited to celebrate this final chapter with you.”
The disbandment of Panic! at the Disco marks the end of an era for the beloved pop-punk group. After nearly 20 years of writing sins, not tragedies, the band will be no more. Fans can look forward to the band’s final performance on their upcoming European tour.
