Lorna Shore Have Fired Vocalist CJ McCreery Following Abuse Allegations

Lorna Shore have fired vocalist CJ McCreery, who joined the band in 2018. The band posted the following abrupt message on Facebook earlier this evening, without any further explanation:

“Effective immediately, CJ McCreery is no longer the vocalist of Lorna Shore.”

A short time earlier, Nicole Garvey, CJ’s ex-girlfriend, retweeted a message she had originally posted on Twitter in April of this year accusing McCreery of emotional abuse and manipulation along with screen shots of their text messages. Garvey said the couple had been together for four and a half years and alleges McCreery began his relationship with her when she was just 17 years old. A short while later she shared a longer piece she had originally written in October accusing McCreery of having sex with her before she turned 18, as well as sexually abusing her and forcing her to film pornography at that age, among other disturbing behavior.

Garvey has continued sharing stories pertaining to her relationship with McCreery on Twitter. She has also reposted tweets and shared private messages from several other women leveling similar complaints against him. You can view a selection of those below (trigger warning: some of it is quite graphic).

Lorna Shore are scheduled to release a new album on January 31, their first for Century Media. At this time it’s unclear what will become of that album.

We will post updates on this story as we receive them.

If I’m going to put it all out there, and not be vague. For 4 and half years, I’ve been on and off in a mentally/emotionally abusive relationship. It’s hard to break a cycle when someone is so deeply intertwined in your head, but I finally am making steps to do it and so can you. pic.twitter.com/KuT6RBlG51

I wrote this in October.

“I’m not going to expose every detail and relive years of my own trauma and abuse to “prove it” to strangers or people who don’t deserve one more fiber of my energy. Take it or leave it. Here is MY warning. This is MY experience with Cj McCreery.” pic.twitter.com/gtE6yuC1tt

I obvi don’t give a shit what anyone says or believes about me, but obviously I have so much proof of everything that ever happened to me or was said to me, and I’m still not gonna do all that. But what we are not going to do is try to tell me what the fuck I’ve been through lmao

Remember when I tried to bring awareness about Cj, then multiple women came forward, and then Morgan said that I wasn’t abused and I needed to stop talking about it because I was “ruining things for actual victims of abuse” and then also got abused by the same person. Me too.

And yet, ANOTHER victim with years of proof? (Who’s name won’t be disclosed yet) Still wanna get the cops involved. Still want to say we’re lying. Still want to say women coming out about their trauma is bullying and jealousy towards you? Get a reality check. pic.twitter.com/Y4Moeay1Jm
