Live band par excellence, cult rockers Dananananaykroyd have announced they are to split following a final single and tour.
After five years of consistently smashing audiences around the collective face, the Glasgow’s six-man musical fireball have announced their intention to split immediately after the conclusion of their forthcoming UK tour.
The band will release their final single Think & Feel digitally on 7th November. Check out the track on Soundcloud here http://soundcloud.com/workit/think-and-feel/
Drawing plaudits wide and varied, the outfit oft-described as ‘the best live band in the world,’ have notched up two critically-acclaimed albums.
Best known for hit single Black Wax, the band’s most recent LP There Is A Way was made on Venice Beach, LA with legendary producer Ross Robinson (The Cure, Korn, At the Drive-In.)
The group said of the split, ‘We all still love each other very much, for a band called Dananananaykroyd we’ve done more than we ever expected or possibly even intended and we’ve enjoyed nearly every step of the way.’
They continued, ‘We’re very keen at the same time to make sure we’re never compromising or giving anything less than 100% and at this juncture of our collective lives, it makes sense to go out with a bang – which is exactly what this tour will be.’
Following shows in Leeds and Bristol, Dananananaykroyd’s 12-date farewell tour begins with what will doubtless be a sell-out show in hometown Glasgow.
The tour ends in a giant sphere of blood, guts, human flesh, fire and rock in Newcastle on 12th November and calls over the UK beforehand.
