Red Hot Chili Peppers, claiming that creatively, the experience was “enormously stifling”.Klinghoffer joined the band in 2009 after serving as a touring member following the departure of guitarist John Frusciante.

Klinghoffer recorded two albums with the Red Hot Chili Peppers – 2011’s ‘I’m With You’ and 2016’s ‘The Getaway’. He was asked to leave the band in 2019, when Frusciante returned and has since joined Pearl Jam’s live setup.Speaking about his decade with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Klingoffer told Guitar World (via Radio X) that “as much as I love those guys and loved playing with them, it was also enormously stifling creatively.

They’re an established band with an established sound, and I learned over time how little deviating from that was possible,” he explained.“As much as I thought they were up for experimentation, they generally stayed in their own lane.”He went on to say that “obviously, it’s sad when something is taken from you.”Speaking to NME about Klingoffer’s departure, Flea said: “It was a big shift for us, parting ways with Josh.

He’s been with us for 10 years, and it was an emotionally difficult thing to do. Not only was he a great musician, he was also a thoughtful, supportive team-player – a communally-minded, kind and intelligent person.
