A significant shift has occurred in AS I LAY DYING’s camp, as the bassist Ryan Neff has decided to part ways with the band. Neff, who joined the group in 2022 after meeting them during a tour in Mexico, announced his departure on Saturday, October 19, 2024, via his social media accounts.
In his official statement, Neff says:
“As of today, I have made the decision to leave As I Lay Dying. This choice comes after much reflection, and I believe it is the right step for my personal and professional journey. I am grateful for the experiences and connections I’ve made during my time with the band. Thank you to all the fans for your support“.
This decision seems to stem from Neff’s desire to fully dedicate himself to MISS MAY I, the band in which he is a member since 2007. He believes this move will allow him to advance his career, focusing more on his work with MISS MAY I.
As of now, AS I LAY DYING have not issued their own official statement regarding Neff’s departure, leaving fans eager for further updates.
