Fever 333's Jason Aalon Butler issues more in-depth statement regarding band split

Following the departure of guitarist Stephen Harrison and drummer Aric Improta earlier this week, vocalist Jason Aalon Butler released a statement via Instagram. According to the band's sole remaining member, he is grateful for the time that his former bandmates spent working on the band, but intends to keep things moving forward.

I want to thank Aric and Stephen for their time in this project- not just because a statement feels required, but because I mean that. We shared some incredible experiences over the last few years and for that I will always be grateful.

To the supporters of Fever 333- I started this project in order to fill a space in music and culture that I have always wanted to see and know many others like and unlike me would also like to experience. Offering representation and progress not only on stages but through the art is paramount for me. I told myself I would not compromise that vision and I must hold true to that promise. Not only for me, but the others out there looking for somewhere to feel free. So I want to take this moment to say thank you to Aric, Stephen and everyone who has made that possible thus far. The initial era of Fever 333 was incredible in so many ways and I am so excited to present to you the next one.
