Guns N’ Roses have announced that keyboardist Melissa Reese will not be joining the band on their upcoming tour due to unforeseen personal reasons.
In a statement, the band expressed support for Reese and appreciation for fans’ understanding as they prepare to hit the road without her. Reese has been a key part of the lineup since 2016, joining during the massively successful Not in This Lifetime… tour and contributing to the band’s modern live sound.
The tour will still move forward as planned, featuring U.S. stadium and amphitheater dates along with international stops across Europe, Latin America, and Australia. The band is also set to headline Welcome to Rockville in May.
No replacement has been announced at this time, and there’s no official timeline for Reese’s return.
