Stevo, who has been a core member of Sum 41 for the last 17 years, made a seemingly sudden announcement today that he will be leaving the band. He did not go into any details as to why he decided to part ways, but we do have the official statement from him which you can read below the jump.

The band hasn’t released any statements on Stevo’s departure on any of their social media sites, but we will be sure to let you all know as soon as we hear something!

‘m sorry to announce that I’ve decided to leave Sum 41.

Touring with the band has been an amazing experience that has taken us far beyond our old practice space in my parent’s basement to countless countries around the world. I’ve had the opportunity to see and experience so much and for that I am truly grateful.

I just want to thank all of our fans for making the last 17 years possible. I had a blast.

Thanks again,

Stevo.
