Guitarist John LeCompt and drummer Rocky Gray have announced their departure from the group.
LeCompt confirmed the news on his MySpace blog. He wrote that he learned of the decision after a telephone conversation with singer Amy Lee.
Gray has not commented on the news. The band’s singer, Amy Lee, feels that the group will find replacements for the musicians soon. She explained, "John and Rocky were in Evanescence for four years and we shared some great times together playing live, but they were ready to move on and so we have parted ways."
LeCompt’s version of events seems to differ. His blog said, "Without any warning or negotiations for my future, I was fired for no good reason."
