Brian Johnson Announces Resignation: “I Will Leave”
In a stunning announcement that has left fans and the music industry in shock, Brian Johnson, the legendary lead singer of AC/DC, declared his resignation from the band with a cryptic message: “I will leave.” The rock icon shared the unexpected news today, sending waves of confusion and concern across the AC/DC fanbase.
Johnson, who joined AC/DC in 1980 and became the voice behind some of the band’s biggest hits, revealed his decision to step down with a brief yet emotional statement. “After much contemplation, I’ve decided it’s time to move on,” Johnson wrote on social media. “The decision wasn’t easy, but sometimes you have to listen to your body and your heart. I will leave, but the music will always be a part of me.”
While Johnson did not provide specific reasons for his departure, many are speculating that his ongoing health issues, particularly his hearing problems, may have played a significant role. Johnson had previously taken a brief leave from touring in 2016 due to hearing loss, with Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose stepping in as his temporary replacement. His hearing issues had raised questions about his future with the band, and today’s resignation may signal the end of his remarkable tenure with AC/DC.
The news of Johnson’s departure comes as a blow to AC/DC fans, who have followed the band’s electrifying performances for decades. Johnson’s powerful voice helped define the sound of AC/DC, and his presence in the band has been integral to their success. His resignation marks the end of an era for one of rock’s most influential bands.
As fans digest the announcement, many are left wondering what the future holds for AC/DC without their iconic frontman. The band has yet to release a statement regarding plans for future tours or potential replacements.
