The Get Up Kids part ways with James Dewees
"James Dewees is no longer a member of The Get Up Kids"
With that straight-forward yet bare statement, The Get Up Kids announced via their social media that keyboardist James Dewees is no longer a member of the band. Aside from that, no other information from either TGUK or Dewees himself has been forthcoming.
The Get Up Kids just released Problems in May of this year, and are continuing to tour in support of that release. There has been no mentioned of who, if anyone, has been tapped to replace Dewees on tour. You can check out those tour dates below.
