Former Owl City Member Pleads Guilty to TRIGGER WARNING

[blanchedavidian]

Definitely not enchanted to meet these perverts. Recently, former Owl City member Daniel Jorgensen was charged with a felony and plead guilty for lewdness with a child. Everything from here on is going to go under a cut because this is a sensitive topic.

i always thought owl city was just one guy with a keyboard.

fucking scum.

I'm no expert but from what I gather, that's how it started and then when they got their single hit and started touring, he needed more members to play and hired a local pedo.

Yes Owl City is that, one person who makes all the music, but when he tours he'll have a band play with him. I wouldn't even call them official members.

Yeah Daniel was a touring member not an actual band member

[namae_nai]

yeah, i don't even care about owl city but it's kinda shitty to associate them/him with this guy if he was just a touring musician. touring musicians often work for hire for more than one band or singer.

Normally I would agree - but in this case, the article literally states that the person involved had 'interactions' with the lead singer that she legally can't talk about.

So here, it sounds as though there's a deliberate association/connection.

ah well, ontd doesnt read strikes again lol (at least not past the first few senteces). thanks for pointing it out

[howlin_wolf_66]

No problem. I wasn't criticizing you; I just wanted to clarify. :-)

Idk if you watched the TikTok but she met Owl City (the touring band) and lives locally to them and began to go to a lot of their shows. She then started to go to shows of the guy Daniel's solo project outside of Owl City. I am not SURE what is going on with the lead singer/Owl City himself so I didn't want to post more but there are other tiktoks about him being someone to watch out for and avoid, just no details, so I didn't include anything. It could be "He covered for this pervert for years and won't properly apologize, fuck him". He was eager to sing about Taylor when she was like 19 though ://
