NIGHTWISH and Floor Jansen part ways

NIGHTWISH and Floor Jansen issued a statement on their social media announcing

the fact that they decided to part ways. The statements are the following:

After careful consideration, we have, in mutual agreement, decided to part ways. This decision is necessary and important to us and our future ambitions. Thus, we will now pursue those goals in our own separate ways. We wish each other nothing but the very best on our respective artistic journeys.
For you, dear listener, and indeed for us, this marks the end of a truly great voyage.

From Floor

Endings create new beginnings, and even though it was a hard decision to make, I believe there is a bright musical journey ahead of me. I invite you to follow along on this path, as you were with me in all the great years before. Thank you for your support through the rollercoasters of life. My solo career will now get all of my attention and gives my new upcoming album Hytress (out 2027) and the tour all space to grow. Hope to meet you on the road again in a near and happy future.
With love and respect,
Floor

Floor Jansen had been the frontwoman of NIGHTWISH since 2013 taking part in 3 full length albums and numerous live shows.
