BORN OF OSIRIS Holding Open Auditions For New Touring Guitarist

Born Of Osiris recently parted ways with longtime guitarist Lee McKinney. While Born Of Osiris has Scott Carstairs of Fallujah and Entheos filling in for them live right now, the band needs a more permanent replacement in the future. That’s where you potentially come in.

Born Of Osiris is asking fill-in touring guitarist and will be holding open auditions for the position, with the following qualifications preferred:

• Must be 21+
• Must have extensive touring experience
• Must be committed to making Born of Osiris your number one priority. We tour heavily and need someone who is available year-round
• US-based candidates are strongly preferred

Applicants can email [email protected] and should “include your full name, age, city of residence, links to your social media accounts, and a list of all your touring experience.” I do think it’s interesting that Born Of Osiris is looking for a live fill-in and not a permanent replacement, but maybe that’ll come later down the line?

“To our BOO CREW family around the world, we have some news to share with you: Lee McKinney and Born of Osiris are parting ways,” wrote Born Of Osiris regarding their split with McKinney at the time. “We wish him the best with his future endeavors. None of our upcoming plans will change:

• Our new album, Through Shadows will come out on July 11th
• We will continue the European headline tour that we are on right now; we will not cancel any shows
• For our upcoming Canadian tour in June/July, Scott Carstairs from Entheos/Fallujah will be filling in on guitar

“We will soon be announcing more details regarding the future guitar player of Born of Osiris.”
