Greg Phillinganes is stepping away. His IG announcement is below. With Dave and Steve P. out, I can't think of anyone better. I wonder if Dennis Atlas will fill both roles.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
On this date, exactly 2 years ago, Luke called me and asked, ”What are you doing for the next (fill in the blank) years?” And just like that, I was back in Toto.
The past two years have been quite the ride with highs, lows and everything in between. Played 3 of my favorite venues: the Hollywood Bowl, Forum and Pine Knob. Witnessed hundreds of thousands of blissful fans from all over Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South America, Mexico and the good ole US…all of which I’m forever grateful for.
This year, however, I’m feeling strongly led in a different direction. For this reason, I have decided to step away from the band so I can be more present in the lives of my family.
Toto has been, is and always will be a unique band of supremely talented musicians playing the highest quality of music spanning multiple genres. I am extremely proud to be a part of their legacy of almost 50 years. Our motto is “Brothers for life” and I love these brothers to my core.
