Former Turnstile guitarist Brady Ebert has publicly fired shots at his old bandmates, leveling serious accusations in a heated social media exchange that's shed a little more light on his departure from the band.
The comments surfaced after a post from Turnstile's Instagram story featuring a sign reading "abolish ICE" was reshared by Jesea Lee on Instagram (also captured here). Ebert responded in the comment section, accusing the band of performative politics and ethical indifference.
"Lmao, no one in turnstile cares at all about ethics or social issues in general, they're just pandering to their audience," Ebert wrote.
He then alleged misconduct tied to one of the band's early benefit shows: "At turnstiles first free show they did they claimed all proceeds go to healthcare for the homeless, we raised 10000 dollars but i watched Brendan steal 4000 dollars from that and claim he needed to ‘pay the merch bill' which was false."
Ebert's remarks immediately reignited discussion around his departure from Turnstile in 2022, which was widely understood to be contentious. Around the time of the split, reports circulated that drummer Daniel Fang had filed a restraining order against Ebert — though few concrete details have ever been made public.
Addressing that episode directly in a follow-up comment on the same post, Ebert pushed back hard against what he described as misinformation.
"Also my friends filed a restraining order and guess what, they had two laywers with them abd I showed up to court bt myself and the judge DENIED the restraining order," he wrote. "Because there was no statute in the laws about what qualifies for a restraining order that they were able to meet the requirements of."
He continued: "In other words they had no reason to file it and it was all over text messages which they showed the judge and the judge agreed with me without me even having to testify so next time before u spread bullshit misinformation say that shit to my face."
Neither Turnstile nor their representatives have responded publicly to Ebert's claims.
