Goose has announced that percussionist Jeff Arevalo will no longer be a member of the band due to personal behavior incompatible with the band's core values. The difficult decision follows a thorough consideration aimed at upholding the group's commitment to respect, community values, and providing a safe environment for all.
In a statement released today, the band expressed the challenging nature of this development: "This is an incredibly unfortunate, unexpected situation, and we did not anticipate having to make another painful change to the band. However, it is clear that this is the only way forward as we remain committed to upholding the values that define our community, particularly when it comes to respecting others and creating a safe environment."
Despite recent challenges, Goose highlighted the strengthened bonds among the remaining members during their recent tour. "Through it all, the four of us forged a deeper connection on and off stage," the band noted. "We’re feeling inspired to continue growing as a unit as we move into this next chapter, and are deeply grateful for everyone with us on this journey."
Goose extends sincere gratitude to their fans and community for continued support during this transition period. Updates on future developments will be shared as the band moves forward.
