Paramore's Zac Farro Grateful For Second Chance With Band

(TeamRock) Paramore drummer Zac Farro is grateful for a "second chance" to work with the band. He quit along with brother Josh in 2010, following the release of third album Brand New Eyes the previous year. The pair said they'd become tired of being a "manufactured product" and accused singer Hayley Williams' management of manipulation.

But Farro has now "restored" his friendships with guitarist Taylor York and William, and recently confirmed he was working with them on the follow-up to Paramore's self-titled full-length.

He tells Billboard's podcast Alt In Our Stars: "It's a second chance. I'm so thankful that I'm playing on the album. But that wasn't what was important to me at the beginning. What was important was mending those friendships.

"I'm not super proud of how everything went down, but Hayley and Taylor have become really good friends of mine again and they're super supportive of my stuff. We restored our friendships. We haven't skipped a beat and it's been so amazing." Read more here.
