Musician

The Resume

    (September 29, 1987- )
    Born in Voorhees Township, New Jersey
    Guitarist for Paramore (2004–2010) and Novel American (2011-2014)
    Frontman for Farro (as of 2014)
    Debut solo album is ‘Walkways’ (independent release)
    Solo singles include ‘Color Rush’ and ‘Cliffs’

Why he might be annoying:

    He only began playing guitar in his teens.
    Following a rather messy fallout with Paramore, he went on a bit of a Twitter bender.
    You named your daughter Basil James?
    He tends to wear a lip ring.
    He made a Facebook post – in 2020, no less – comparing pedophilia and homosexuality!

Why he might not be annoying:

    About being a late-blooming guitarist: he was basically self-taught.
    He co-authored almost all Paramore tracks from their first three albums. Speaking of which:
    ‘Misery Business’ (‘Riot!’) was written in honor of an ex-girlfriend (played in the corresponding clip by Amy Paffrath).
    He forwent Paramore’s Pacific Rim tour to plan his nuptials at home (with bandmate Taylor York’s brother filling in for him).
    Fortunately, he didn’t saddle his son with a gender-blending name (Leon).
