MAJESTY Part Ways With Bassist Carsten Kettering; Search On For Replacement
January 16, 2014, 10 years ago
German metal legends MAJESTY have announced that bassist Carsten Kettering has left the band, only one year after joining. Carsten was the only member of Majesty who has a regular job besides the band. Due to the immense live and studio activities he now had to accept that the band and his job are not compatible with each other anymore.
Singer Tarek issued the following statement: ”We, as a band, are very sad because of Carsten's departure. Not only because he is a great bass player but also because he's a good friend. However, we of course respect his decision. We played more than 50 shows last year and we want to increase that number in 2014 which is only possible when you can give 100% of your time and strength for the band. Carsten told me that this is not possible with his job besides the band anymore and we respect that. We wish him all the best. Of course now we need a new bass player as soon as possible!”
The band is very thankful to Andi Siegl, who already covered for Carsten on the December shows. But now Majesty is looking for a new bass player who is ready to give all his power and dedication to the band. If you're interested please write an email to info@metalentertainment.de.
