Founding Miss May I guitarists B.J. Stead and Justin Aufdemkampe have both quit the band. According to a statement from Miss May I, Stead and Aufdemkampe have left to pursue new ventures and are replaced by Elisha Mullins of War Of Ages.
"For over 15 years, we have maintained the same lineup with Miss May I, and today we announce the discontinuation of the era with two members.
"It goes without saying that Bj and Justin will not only be missed, but their legacy will continue as we move forward as a group. Both members have decided to pursue new ventures, and we fully support their decision. We all had our eyes on the prize and never took no for an answer when we started this venture, 'Miss May I,' back in high school, and we won't stand in their way as they continue to grow.
"In their place, we have welcomed Elisha Mullins, who will be joining us on this journey. We have no plans to slow down as we prepare to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of our debut album, Apologies Are For The Weak, by playing shows all over.
"Please help us welcome Elisha into our family with open arms, and here's to many more years of music, adventures, and memories together."
