Yes, unfortunately Daniel after 16 years has quit NeO

Message from NeO and Xen on patreon explaining the situation: "We regret to announce that due to a family member's cancer diagnosis and the months of treatment ahead, Xen has decided to focus on this personal matter and won't be touring with NeO during the course of 2024, including at our upcoming EU summer festivals this June & July. In the meantime he'll be continuing to work with the band behind the scenes as we support him through this time. We are grateful to have the incredible James Dorton performing with us again after successful tours together in Europe & North America last year and are looking forward to seeing all our European friends again in just a few weeks time" - NeO Xen added this message for Patreon members: ""It’s sad that I won’t be there with the guys but the show must go on. Thank you for all that you do for the band, in due time I’ll see all your glorious faces again from the stage.”
