Xander Raymond Charles took to social media this weekend to reveal that he was been dismissed from Ill Nino after the band revealed earlier this year that he had been become a permanent member.
Charles shared, "In the beginning of 2026, I was hired by the band Ill Nino to become a permanent replacement and the newest member. Last night, I received a call telling me they no longer need me as a replacement. This was a total shock, as I was committed for several months, and the first show is 3 weeks away. I was informed this decision was completely out of my control, and I had nothing to do with it.
As of today, I am available for work. If anyone needs a guitar player, I'm here. I keep my word, and I commit to what I agree to. Lastly, there is no bad blood, and I understand this is strictly a business decision. I wish Ill Nino nothing but the best.
