Born Of Osiris keyboardist Joe Buras has quit the band. Buras played for Born Of Osiris between 2003 and 2024, back when the band was known as both Diminished and Your Heart Engraved.
Buras cites personal growth and aspirations as his reasons for leaving the band. Born Of Osiris has not yet named a replacement for Buras despite their impending tour dates
“Dear fans and supporters,
“After much contemplation and soul-searching, I have made the difficult decision to resign from Born Of Osiris. This choice didn’t come lightly, as being a part of this band has been an incredible journey filled with unforgettable memories and experiences.
“However, as life progresses, so do our personal paths and aspirations. I believe it’s time for me to explore new opportunities and avenues for growth both personally and professionally. This decision was not made hastily, but rather with careful consideration and respect for the band and its future endeavors.
“I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you who has supported me and the band throughout the years. Your unwavering passion and dedication have meant the world to me, and I am forever grateful for the love you have shown us.
“To my bandmates, thank you for being incredible collaborators and friends. The bond we’ve formed through music is something I will always cherish, and I wish you nothing but continued success and fulfillment in your future endeavors.
“While this may mark the end of my chapter with Born Of Osiris, I am excited about what the future holds and the new opportunities that await. Thank you again for your endless support, and I hope our paths will cross again in the future. With deepest gratitude, Joe Buras”
Born Of Osiris also commented, saying: “We would like to thank Joe for sharing his undeniable talent and charisma over the many years with Born Of Osiris. His contribution to our music and performance is unmatched. From jamming in our parent’s basement in high school to playing shows around the world together, we have made amazing memories.
“As for the future of Born Of Osiris – we will continue to operate with extreme passion, as you can hear from our release yesterday. We have a lot of new music coming your way this year as well. We are wishing Joe the best in his future endeavors.”
