Panic At The Disco Disband After 20 Years, Brendon Urie Announces

Why Did Panic! At The Disco Disband? Here’s the Reason Behind It

PANIC AT THE DISCO – Frontman Brendon Urie announced Panic! At The Disco disbands after around 20 years.

Panic At The Disco was founded in 2004 when the initial group of members was still in high school. In 2005, frontman Brendon Urie, drummer Spencer Smith, and guitarist and songwriter Ryan Ross released Fever You Can’t Sweat Out, their debut album.

This album gave rise to the instant classic “I Write Sins Not Tragedies” and other songs with lengthy titles, such as this one: “Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off.” Pretty. Odd, their second album, came out a year later. When the band’s 2008 album Odd. was released, Ross and bassist Jon Walker left, leaving Urie, Smith, and Dallon Weekes in charge of the group’s subsequent albums, Vices and Virtues (2011) and Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! (2013).

The band’s first solo project was Death of a Bachelor, which Brendon Urie ultimately released on his own in 2016. His follow-up album, Pray for the Wicked (2018), gave rise to Pete Buttigieg’s unsuccessful campaign song, “High Hopes,” while Panic’s final studio album, Viva Las Vengeance, was released last year.

On January 24, 2023, Urie made the official announcement that Panic! at the Disco would break up after the Viva Las Vengeance Tour.

Urie said in a statement on their official Instagram page that the decision to split up has been weighing on the members’ minds for a while due to his focused attention on his family.

“We’ve been trying to keep it to ourselves, though some of you may have heard.. Sarah and I are expecting a baby very soon! The prospect of being a father and getting to watch my wife become a mother is both humbling and exciting. I look forward to this next adventure…”

“That said, I am going to bring this chapter of my life to an end and put my focus and energy on my family, and with that Panic! At The Disco will be no more,” Urie further said.
