The news comes after With Confidence announced they were parting ways with guitarist Luke "Rockets" Thomas who allegedly sent messages of a sexual nature to a 14-year-old female fan.
Just two days later, frontman Jayden Seeley addressed allegations he solicited child pornography from a 15-year-old female fan in 2013.
The band were axed from the UNIFY 2018 festival shortly after the allegations came to light.
