Taking Back Sunday Drummer Quits

After spending the last 25 years behind the drum kit, Taking Back Sunday’s Mark O’Connell has announced he’s leaving the band.

O’Connell says personal growth, family commitments and creative differences with his bandmates all played a part in his decision, which he adds wasn’t easy to make.

The drummer says he’s already made plans to release new music. There’s no word yet on when it’s expected to drop.
