But in Dec. 2010, brothers Josh and Zac Farro announced that they were leaving the group. Williams said it was tough when the band first started creating new music because of all the changes. "The first two months were hard ... we were all trying to figure out like,
'How does this work?'" she recalled. "It was a little scary to get going." But with the help of producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Williams believes now the group is most confident. They'll launch an international tour April 25 in Houston, and she said the result of downsizing "kind of feels like we started a new band." "We wouldn't have made this album when there were five of us," Williams said. "As a five-piece band we weren't in a very healthy place as people, together or individually as well. And the three of us are at a point now where we know; when we look at each other, we know that each of us wants to be here."
