Hey Violet Lyrics | Lyricstor

About Hey Violet Hey Violet is an American alternative pop band from Los Angeles, California, consisting of Rena Lovelis (bass/lead vocals), Nia Lovelis (drums/vocals), and Casey Moreta (lead guitar). The band originally began as an all-female, hard rock band named Cherri Bomb consisting of the Lovelis sisters, Miranda Miller, and Julia Pierce. Pierce later left the band due to creative differences, although she claimed she did not leave the band willingly. They released one album as Cherri Bomb, 2012’s This Is The End Of Control. Guitarist Casey Moreta filled in for Pierce until being asked to join the band live in concert by the remaining members of Cherri Bomb. Two years later, in February of 2015, the band announced that their name had changed to “Hey Violet” and later released the single “This Is Why”. They then signed with 5 Second’s of Summer’s label Hi or Hey Records, in partnership with Capitol Records and confirmed the release of their debut EP as Hey Violet: “I Can Feel It”. They supported 5SOS on their tour in 2014-2015, and a year later released the “Brand New Moves” EP. Whilst on tour with 5SOS again in 2016, Hey Violet announced that lead singer and bassist Rena would be stepping down from her bass-guitar commitments to focus on vocals, and introduced Ian Shipp to play bass on tour, and Shipp later became the fifth member of the band. However, on April, 16th, 2019, Rena announced the departure of Shipp on Twitter due to sexual allegations made against him. Several singles were released from 2016-2017 in anticipation for their 2017 debut, including the Billboard charting “Guys My Age”, and “Break My Heart”. The album, From The Outside, was released in June. In September of 2017, guitarist & keyboardist Miranda Miller departed peacefully with the band claiming that “life on the road is pretty grueling”.
