Charmer

Three of the five members of Pennsylvania indie rockers Tigers Jaw quit the band before their latest album was recorded, but they stayed on to finish Charmer; as a result, the album comes off like a smooth segue into a new incarnation of the band rather than a sudden, painful break or an awkward growth spurt.

Indie rockers Tigers Jaw abruptly went from a quintet to a duo in 2013 when Adam McIlwee, Dennis Mishko, and Pat Brier left the band, but founding members Ben Walsh and Brianna Collins opted to move forward with the recording of their next album, and persuaded their former bandmates to help them complete the project before moving on for good.

Three members of scrappy Scranton, PA slacker-punks Tigers Jaw departed the band in early 2013, casting doubt over the band's future.
