Aaron Lazar leaving the Giraffes (after at least 1 more show)

The Giraffes on a boat (more by Keith Marlowe)

“Come say farewell to Aaron as he leaves The Giraffes to embark on his journey as a Wageearner.”

As that message states, The Giraffes are bidding wildman/vocalist Aaron Lazar adeiu. Has he moved on to greener pastures? Either way, the Giraffes will play one final show with Lazar before he rides a giant moustache off into the sunset. Mercury Lounge will house said event on Feb 5th and Moon Rabbits (and possibly more bands TBA) will open the show. Tickets go on sale Friday (1/7) at noon. No word on the outcome of some of those “new jams” they were working on in early September (though it seems the band will continue on with a new vocalist), or the status of Aaron’s other project Rumanian Buck, but if we hear more we’ll let you know. – BBG
