Following the public fallout between Against Me!‘s Laura Jane Grace and wife Paris Campbell Grace stemming from claims of spousal abuse, Grace has decided to cancel all live appearances for rest of the year.
Grace had been on tour with her band, Laura Jane Grace in the Trauma Tropes, supporting Murder By Death on their final tour when the online public back and forth between the couple started, leaving Grace to bow out of a handful of dates before addressing the claim publicly today.
Hours laters Grace would ultimately drop from the tour and cancel the remaining tour itinerary for the 2025.
In a statement posted to social media, Grace shared:
Unfortunately it has become apparent to me that at this time continuing ahead with touring is neither realistic nor in good taste.
I’ll be taking the rest of the year off from the road to work on myself and get my life in order.I would like to sincerely apologize to @murderbydeath for bringing such a foul energy around their farewell tour dates they invited me to be a part of.
I would like to sincerely apologize to @trapperschoepp and @teamnonexistent for fuckin up the August run and I hope to someday to have the chance to share the stage together.
I would like to apologize to all the venues and promoters who had put in work setting up the shows and promoting the dates. I hope I get the chance to demonstrate in the future that this is not who I am or what I’m about.
There will be information about ticket refunds to follow shortly for anyone who was holding.
It has been absolutely thrilling playing together and touring together and y’all don’t deserve drama like this in your lives. You all are one hell of a rhythm section and one hell of a crew. Thank you and I’m sorry.
And finally Id like to apologize to @polyvinylrecords for my personal life royally fuckin up this album release.I still think it’s a really good record and that people should give it a listen.
Hope to see everyone back out there on the road in 2026
