Founding Miss May I guitarists B.J. Stead and Justin Aufdemkampe have both left the band. According to a statement from Miss May I, Stead and Aufdemkampe are moving on to pursue new ventures and will be 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 end of an era with two members leaving.
“It goes without saying that B.J. and Justin will be deeply missed, but their legacy will live on as we move forward as a group. Both members have decided to pursue new paths, and we fully support their decision. We all had our eyes on the prize and never took no for an answer when we started 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.”
