Earphunk To Breakup Following Bear Creek Bayou Performance

We’re saddened to report that New Orleans prog-funk act Earphunk will soon part ways. The members of the band just posted on Facebook that this Friday night’s performance will be their last.

On Friday Earphunk will play a set at this year’s Bear Creek Bayou Music Festival in their hometown of New Orleans, so they thought it would be a fitting occasion to call it a career following the gig. The group formed in 2009 and has put out three studio albums, the last of which was 2014’s Sweet Nasty.

Here’s the message posted by the band on Facebook:

Dear fans, friends, and family,

We are sorry to announce that our performance at this weekend’s Bear Creek Bayou Music Festival on Friday will be our final show together. We feel it is right that it will be at home in New Orleans as a part of the first festival we ever played. We have traveled throughout the entire country, made life long friends and we feel fortunate to have accomplished things as a band we never would have imagined when we first began. Please keep an eye out for our own individual endeavors as we move forward! Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for the constant love and support over these past seven years.

With love,

Earphunk
