May 31, 2024 – Los Angeles, CA – It’s a remarkably bittersweet day for fans of Hey Violet. On May 31, the alt pop trio announced that they would be parting ways following their final forthcoming album: AFTERTASTE. After officially forming on February 18th, 2015, while its members were still in their mid-teens, Hey Violet immediately went on to capture the hearts of thousands of fans, have a sparkling decade-long career, tour a myriad major cities across the globe and land hundreds of thousands of social media followers. But the band isn’t letting the somber news stop the momentum of their highly-anticipated forthcoming record, one that will surely solidify their spot in pop history. Pre-save/pre-order AFTERTASTE HERE.

The band shares of their impending split:

dear you,

it’s been a blessing to have been able to exist in this home we all created together for the last nine years. it’s with sadness, love and hope that we’ve come together to tell you that we, as a band, have come to the deeply difficult decision to go on a permanent hiatus following the release of our second and final album, AFTERTASTE. it’s been a long, challenging and beautiful nine years and we three feel it’s time to allow ourselves to focus our energy on other projects in each of our lives. we love and appreciate each and every one of you who have made these years so full and special. we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the time you let us be your life’s soundtrack. we thank you for the smiles and the tears and the ways you’ve allowed and continued to allow our songs to be a safe haven for your personal tribulations - and for being our safe haven, too. from the misunderstandings and recklessness of our youth to a wild and untamed coming of age to a deep reckoning of trauma and healing to surprising ourselves by learning to enjoy our own company and all of the emotions and experiences in between. it’s taken a long time to come to this conclusion. that being said, we are very excited for the next chapter of our lives and to let this project be laid to rest. we leave you with lots of love and a body of work that we hope will carry you onto whatever is next for you in your journey. thank you for being a part of hey violet’s for almost a decade.

Hey Violet’s Rena Lovelis shares of “Hazy”
 “Hazy is about the feeling of being stuck in what everyone that likes your music seems to know you for, and grappling with the expectations of what we were once told we should be. It was a long process trying to figure out who we really were as a band and as individuals. That’s obviously an ongoing exploration, but there was a turning point once we were on our own, without a label, without management. I definitely had to re-evaluate who I was without a team, without anyone’s outside opinion… who and what do I want to be?”
