Emarosa announce new lead singer

Ten days ago Dance Gavin Dance announced the departure of their lead singer Jonny Craig through a very vivid, harsh blog that defamed Craig’s character.
Today, Emarosa have posted two blogs on their Myspace; one from Craig rebutting his former bands’ accusations and another
from Emarosa introducing Craig as their new lead singer.

Below are two excerpts from the blogs:

Craig:

I guess there is really only way to confront the issue and that is tell my side of the story. The “drug” abuse was something that I did have to deal with at one point in my life, but not recently within this past year. I never stole drugs from anyone to try and get by and I never ran away due to my home BEING in Canada….I live there. I have my G.E.D and plan on taking college courses if time from touring allows so. I hold no grudges to any of the guys for kicking me out and leaving me in New Jersey whatsoever and I want everyone to understand that.

Emarosa:

We feel that the direction of the new material we have been writing adequately represents us as musicians and people. With the addition of Jonny Craig (formerly Dance Gavin Dance), we feel we have reached a level of maturity that we are very comfortable with. We didn’t intend for any of this to happen the way it did, but now that it has, we are embracing the change and feel its best for the music we are creating. Regardless of the vocalist, our goals and creative ambitions are still the same.
