\n\tJane\u2019s Addiction frontman Perry Farrell and his bandmates are making peace amid a messy legal battle stemming from an onstage brawl last year, publicly apologizing to each other and saying they\u2019ll now focus on \u201cseparate musical and creative endeavors.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tFarrell posted a contrite Instagram statement on Wednesday (Dec. 17), while Jane\u2019s Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro, bassist Eric Avery and drummer Stephen Perkins simultaneously extended an olive branch on the band\u2019s official page. The trio had sued Farrell in July for assaulting Navarro during a Boston show in 2024, and Farrell hit back with a lawsuit of his own that accused his bandmates of bullying him and spreading a false narrative about the incident.<\/p>\n

\n\tThere\u2019s no word yet of an official settlement ending the dueling lawsuits, though court documents say the band members participated in a mediation session last month. The language of the Instagram posts suggests a reconciliation \u2014 and seems to confirm that Jane\u2019s Addiction is no more.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cToday we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane\u2019s Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together,\u201d reads the post on the band\u2019s page. \u201cWe now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors. Jane\u2019s Addiction will forever live in our hearts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn another sign that a settlement could be on the horizon, both of these Instagram posts apologize for key allegations in the legal feud. Farrell, for his part, says he\u2019s \u201ctruly sorry\u201d for the September 2024 incident on stage, during which Navarro claims the lead singer punched him unprovoked.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019ve reflected on it and know I didn\u2019t handle myself the way I should have,\u201d writes Farrell. \u201cI apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and disrupting the show.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn his counter-lawsuit, Farrell had accused his bandmates of canceling the rest of the 2024 tour without his input and unfairly making him the \u201cscapegoat\u201d for their lost profits. Navarro, Avery and Perkins address this in their Instagram post, too.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe would like to clarify the events surrounding the cancellation of the tour after the show in Boston in September 2024,\u201d write the band members. \u201cAfter that show, without notice to Perry, we unilaterally determined it would be best to not continue the tour and made inaccurate statements about Perry\u2019s mental health which we regret.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLegal reps for the band members did not return requests for comment. Their attorneys are currently scheduled to appear before a judge for a case update next month.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe onstage brawl in Boston, which went viral thanks to a fan video, was a key inflection point derailing Jane\u2019s Addiction\u2019s first tour as a full group since 2010. They were working at the time on a new album under a distribution deal with Warner Music\u2019s ADA. It now appears unlikely that the project will be completed.<\/p>\n
