AMBULETTE BREAK UP

Posted by Scott Heisel on 21-Aug-07 @ 12:29 AM

Melodic indie-rock outfit Ambulette, led by former Denali frontwoman Maura Davis, has decided to disband after a scant three years and only one official release, 2006's The Lottery EP. The band posted the following on their blog:
"we are sad today to announce that we will no longer continue on as ambulette. at least for now. we have faced many obstacles as a band and have just decided that it's time to move on to other endeavors. it has not been easy for us to get anything done based on our label situations and it just isn't much fun anymore. when your band is 90% business and 10% music it's time to try something else. when and if we ever actually fully get the rights to the record we made, we will find a way to make it available to the handful of you that have been waiting for so long. if that takes too long we'll just put it up somewhere and you can take it. thanks so much to anyone who has ever come to a show or written us a comment or just generally supported this band. you have all been wonderful. thanks."
The band had originally been signed to Capitol Records and actually recorded their debut full-length for the label last year, but due to label mergers, the band were dropped and subsequently, the record will most likely never see the light of day.

PIEBALD TO BREAK UP AFTER CURRENT TOUR WITH THE FORMAT

Posted by Scott Heisel on 19-Aug-07 @ 02:53 PM

Long-running emo-rock act Piebald are breaking up. Their most recent release was this year's SideOneDummy-released Accidental Gentlemen. The band write:
"Friends, friends, friends...we have not posted anything anywhere in quite some time and our word on the street is that this is our last tour. All the preceding words are true and we have decided to put Piebald to rest. The past fifteen years or so have been nothing short of extremely incredible. We have met lots of people, been to lots of places and experienced a whole lot of life. In 1994 we started making music, screenprinting our own seven inch covers and borrowing our parents cars to get to shows. Since then, we have traveled the globe, released many records, and played thousands of shows; pedaling the righteous name of piebald to all whose paths we crossed. In celebration of the many years of good times and incredible accomplishments, we have decided to dedicate this tour to us; Piebald. Thanks to all who have helped in any and every way...families, friends, girlfriends, vans, bands, fans, promoters, labels, booking agent, lawyer, clubs, engineers, producers, and those who we forgot to mention. Now, this is not a teary eyed time, people. This is a time of new beginnings, positive vibes, and a congratulatory nod to the past. There has been talk of a few shows to give the band an official sendoff, but as of yet, those shows are not booked and unknown. Thanks for all the undying support. We love you."
The band's final tour with the Format, Steel Train, Limbeck and Reubens Accomplice plays Boston tonight (dates).
