Attention

We are NOT breaking up.
But we’re about to take a hiatus from touring for a few years. We still have an upcoming show in Mexico and another one in Miami, and that’s it… until the time is right.

Thank you all for making this last tour and last few shows so special, you probably didn’t realize it would be the last shows in a way (although I mumbled something about it) which made it even more special.

Thank you to our entire tour crew, who are definitely the best in the industry <3

There will be things happening between now and our live comeback, of course, but we’ll see each other in a few years… unless we see each other in Mexico or Miami.
