In perhaps the most unsurprising news of the day, Equilibrium bassist Jen Majura has parted ways with the band.

It was announced in August that she had been tapped to join Evanescence, and given the size of commitment to a band of that calibre it pretty much spelled the end of her short time in Equilbrium.

The band, along with Jen, released a statement posted on Facebook below:

“Our bass player Jen will leave the band unfortunately. Big thanks to you for being part of our adventure for the last 1,5 years and all the best for your future!

This will not affect the future plans of EQUILIBRIUM. We will play all shows and of course we will continue working on our next fulltime album which you can expect in 2016.

Here you can read her statement:
“Dear Equi Fans, 

I am really sorry to let you know that my work with EQUILIBRIUM after just one and a half year has now come to an end. After some great national and international shows and a beautiful European tour in October 2014, we separated in a friendly way; this decision was made before I became part of EVANESCENCE in August 2015 and has nothing to do with it. I truly feel sad about not being a part of EQUILIRBIUM any longer due to unsolvable differences and personal views. 

I’m sure, I’ll stay friends with the guys and hope to see you all out there somewhere again. 

Jen”
