Michael Passons was once a member of Christian vocal group Avalon, but is now revealing the shocking reason why he was thrown out of the group 17 years ago.
As People reports, the 54-year-old singer-songwriter appeared on Wednesday’s edition of the “Jonah and the Whale” podcast and revealed he was kicked out of the group because he was gay. “Avalon showed up at my house and told me I was no longer in the group.
And it was all because of who I am,” he said, recalling when he was asked to leave the group in 2003.
