Jonny Reeves has confirmed he’s no longer in Kingdom Of Giants.
Reeves rejoined the California metalcore band in January 2024, but later stepped into The Amity Affliction to replace Ahren Stringer.
In a new episode of The Downbeat Podcast, Reeves was asked about his status in Kingdom Of Giants and suggested the split wasn’t entirely smooth, stating, “They’re disappointed,” while adding there’s “no bad beef from my end.”
Reeves has since settled in with The Amity Affliction, appearing on the band’s new album House Of Cards and continuing to tour with them.
During the episode he shared:
I’m not in the band anymore, as of last December, I would say… Things just were coming to a head where they’re just like, ‘We’ve got plans, and you’ve got other plans going on over here.’ And so it was kind of this, it’s [an] in my court decision.
And I was just like, I don’t wanna hold them back from achieving their goals, but this [The Amity Affliction] aligns with the goals that I’m after. And with things just working so well with this group, it was really kind of a no-brainer.
