The Story So Far kick out founding bassist Kelen Capener

The Story So Far have apparently ousted bass player and co-founder Kelen Capener after roughly 15 years together.

Though the band has yet to publicly address his exit, Capener issued the following statement this week:

"I'd like you all to hear it from me that I am no longer a member of The Story So Far. Although the decision wasn't my own, I understand and accept it and support my friends with sincere love in my heart as they set out to accomplish new creative goals.

"I have been a part of this band for the greater part of my life, but I'm at peace with moving on, as my identity and happiness aren't inextricably tied to our materialized dream.

"Thank you for years of support in this facet of my life, and please - with my blessing - continue to support the band as you always have.

"I'll see you all again down the road."

Mutual losses. Good bass player and good band. Good for him for keeping true to himself.

Should kick the singer out for shamelessly pretending to be Liam Gallagher for the past like... eight years.

anonymous 6/1/2022 3:48:50 PM

The story so far is boring and uneventful.

"founding bassist not a thing" this most bands actually record and tour for a few years before they make the big time and then it's time to find a bassist 🤣

anonymous 6/2/2022 6:23:16 AM

anonymous 6/2/2022 9:11:53 AM

Booked some of their earlier shows before they got big. Kellen was always the coolest, nicest one.

anonymous 6/2/2022 1:06:00 PM

Uou^^^ What made him the nicest? Were the other members as sholes?

anonymous 6/3/2022 5:31:40 AM

Parker should've kicked out the fat rapist from his other shit band

anonymous 6/3/2022 6:19:07 AM

Anyone remember when they played warped and their backdrop was just a t shirt on a clothesline?

anonymous 6/3/2022 6:56:37 AM

He was the only funny member of the band.

anonymous 6/3/2022 10:04:07 AM

anonymous 6/3/2022 10:07:29 AM

I'm surprised they didn't kick out the sexual predator

anonymous 6/6/2022 12:53:48 PM
