COIN Are Calling It Quits: Chase Lawrence Announces Official Disbandment After 'Revelations' About Bandmates

The Nashville-based pop-rock trio is officially disbanding, frontman Chase Lawrence announced on Tuesday (Jan. 28), citing “revelations” about his bandmates

Nashville pop-rock trio COIN have announced their official disbandment via a statement from frontman Chase Lawrence on Tuesday (Jan. 28).

"I have recently become aware of revelations around my bandmates and want to share some thoughts directly with all of you," Lawrence wrote in a statement posted on the band's official Instagram account. "I believe in accountability and doing what’s right."

The news comes just weeks after COIN announced plans to tour without drummer Ryan Winnen, who left the band earlier this month "to focus on some personal matters." In his statement, Lawrence revealed that he has now also parted ways with guitarist Joe Memmel.

"Three months ago, I made the decision to move forward without my drummer, and yesterday, I parted ways with my guitarist," he continued. "Their behaviors directly conflict with my values, and I am devastated for anyone who has been affected by these actions."

Formed in 2012, COIN rose to prominence with their breakout single "Talk Too Much" in 2016, which peaked at No. 8 on Billboard's Alternative Airplay chart. The band released five studio albums, including I'm Not Afraid of Music Anymore, released in 2024.

"Creating a space for love & joy through music has always been my mission," Lawrence added in his statement. "Discovering that this space has been compromised by the actions of others is truly heartbreaking. Unfortunately, these developments have led me to the decision that COIN can no longer continue as a band."

The singer apologized to fans for "the disappointment this may bring" and confirmed that refunds for the band's now-canceled tour dates would be available at the point of purchase. Despite the band's dissolution, Lawrence hinted that he will continue making music in some capacity.

"There’s a lot to figure out about the future, but I know I’m not done making music yet," he concluded.
