Jane’s Addiction said on Monday (September 16) that they are going to “take some time as a band” after frontman Perry Farrell attacked guitarist Dave Navarro during a concert. Now, just days later, there’s a new song from the band’s classic line-up. Listen to “True Love” below.
“True Love” is the second new offering from the reunited Jane’s Addiction band featuring Pharrell, Navarro, drummer Stephen Perkins and bassist Eric Avery. The band released “Imminent Redemption” in July during a reunion tour. The tour, however, came to a halt after Farrell’s incident with Navarro.
Navarro, Perkins and Avery attributed the tour cancellation to Pharrell’s “ongoing behavioral and mental health issues.” They said: “Our concern for his personal health and safety, as well as ours, left us with no choice. We hope that he will find the help he needs.”
In his own statement, Pharrell apologized to his bandmates and said he “takes full responsibility” for his actions.
