I'm sure you guys have already figured this out, seeing as you guys know more about this band than I do sometimes haha... but I wanted to let you know, straight from me what was going on... Cole is leaving SG.
I prepared a statement for everybody outside of the boards, that I'll post under this, but seeing as you guys are the core of this whole thing, I wanted to drop the formalities and let you know first. I'm in the studio finishing some vocals right now, but let's organize a chat this week and we'll talk about everything. It's sad, but I promise everything is actually wonderful. It's bitter and sweet in equal parts.
I love you guys and can't wait to share all of this new stuff with you <3 <3 <3

"Dear Grey Family… I have some bittersweet news to share with you. I’ll just come right out with it… Cole will be leaving Scarlet Grey.
I know the news comes as a shock and while this is sad for The Grey Family, the motivations behind his leaving are anything but sad. Cole is leaving SG and California for love.
Now, we are first and foremost a family… so as such, we wholeheartedly support his decision and celebrate the fact that the circumstances of his departure are actually wonderful. It goes without saying that we’re going to miss him as a friend and artist, but I just have to say that at the end of it all, we are all so happy for him. I mean, Cole is in love! How sad can we really be about that?
Part of what makes this band and this community so special is that together we’ve managed to create something that transcends a typical audience/artist relationship. This is The Grey Family. And if somebody leaves SG, it just means that they’re transitioning out of the band, but they’re still a part of this family.
So in closing, I’d just like to say… Good Luck, Cole… We love you, man.
We’ll always have Fancy Blood."
