Evanescence has announced that guitarist Jen Majura, who has been with the band since 2015, has left the group.

Majura responded to her departure on social media after the band’s announcement, noting that none of this was her decision.

I feel the need to address that none of this was my decision! I have no hard feelings against anybody and I wish Evanescence all the best. I am allowed to carry beautiful memories of these past years, I am grateful.

Majura joined Evanescence in 2015, replacing former Cold guitarist Terry Balsamo, who had joined the band following the departure of original guitarist Ben Moody.

Within Temptation and Evanescence were recently forced to reschedule their forthcoming UK and European tour.

The two bands were originally scheduled to embark on the ‘Worlds Collide’ tour in 2020, however the tour was repeatedly postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The long-awaited events were scheduled to begin in March, but Evanescence and Within Temptation revealed in February that the dates would be moved to November and December.
