No Hance was an original member, Tyler wasn’t.

I believe Hance was in Oh, Manhattan when Woe, Is Me formed in 2009.

No, you’re all stupid. Gabriel is correct. Here’s the interview in which they talk about how Hance was the original clean vocalist when they were a just local band in Atlanta. http://www.altpress.com/features/entry/woe_is_me_interview_tyler_carter_hance_alligood

Ryan, I don’t see where that’s agreed to…it says Hance had worked with some of the guys, but not as Woe, is Me.

When Hance was the original singer they didn’t even have an EP/single out. Therefore to say he was the original singer in ‘Woe, Is Me’ is pushing it a little bit. Technically he was, just because he might have been singing on Oh, Manhattan also doesn’t mean he wasn’t the vocalist when Woe came together. It’s probably why he left after they wrote a song together. He was in the original line up, just before they were even ‘on paper’.

not publicly but stated in an interview he said yes i was the original singer before going public i dont care what anyone says thats original

The way it seems to me is he did a project with some members of what became Woe, Is Me before it was known as such. I’m not sure what that would be considered, but thanks for clearing that up.

If it were a ‘project’ as such, don’t you think the song they wrote
together still would have featured him as maybe a guest vocalist or
something when Woe put out the single?

That would have been pretty cool, I have the early Hell or High Water demo, so it might have been one from that period, it would’ve been interesting to hear Hance and Tyler on the same track. Maybe someday now that Austin is out of the band and the beef is settled.

Yes I agree! It’s funny how on their posts about possible supporting acts or bands to tour with, majority of fans would love to see Woe and Issue’s play together. I would love to see them as I love both of them, maybe even a song with two singers and two harsh vocalists would be interesting to see. Doubt it’ll ever happen like that, but I wouldn’t be surprised if something came out like that in the future.

No, Hance is also an original member. He was the first singer but he left before they recorded anything. Hance has returned so there are two original members.

if you guys paid attention to anything youd know they were signed before they even played a show which means even if Hance was the original member he did not play any shows with them nor did he record anything with them. Tyler Carter sang on the tracks that got them signed.

he still was original
