Another member gone, there must be something in the water recently! 

Announcing that the Keyboardist will leave the band, Josh Balz has made the decision to exit the band. Releasing a statement Motionless In White part with the Keyboardist in the most amicable of ways it seems as they wish Balz well which is a welcome change from the more recent announcements of relationships gone sour. 

Set to embark on their The End Is Here tour very soon the band have had to enlist a replacement keyboardist for the tour as well in order for everything to still go ahead. Rest assured the band will still be releasing their new album Graveyard Shift later this year. 

Here is the band’s statement : 

“MIW fans,

As of today, we regret to announce that after 10 years of time spent with the band, through the highest of highs and lowest of lows, Josh Balz will be departing from Motionless In White.

After many discussions and time spent searching within himself over the past year, Josh has come upon many discoveries of who he now is as a person, and what is truly important to him regarding his future. We respect and whole heartedly understand his decision, and while we are sad to see him go, wish him nothing but great things in the future with his family and pursuing his new dreams and business endeavors. For more information from Josh directly, please visit his twitter @Joshbalz.

Regarding our touring schedule, we will be performing on the rapidly approaching “The End Is Here Tour” exactly as planned, now with a keyboardist to fill in. We will also be playing every show around the globe that we have announced thus far and continuing to tour strongly onward after what has previously been announced.

Regarding our new upcoming record, “Graveyard Shift”, everything is also still exactly as planned, and will be releasing this year on Roadrunner Records.

Thank you, Josh, for your years of dedication in helping MIW become something we only dreamt of being when the band started. It has truly been a pleasure to have shared the road with you and to have so many amazing stories and memories to look back on through it all. You will be missed.  MIW”
