CAVAN, IRE (CelebrityAccess) – Irish rock band The Strypes have announced that they are calling it quits effective immediately.

The Cavan-based group, who were signed to Mercury Records, confirmed the news in a note posted to their Twitter saying: “Over the past 7 years we have played in toilets and theatres, in cafes and castles, from Scotshouse to Tokyo and back again.

“It’s been fun and exciting, dull and dangerous, easy, tough, frustrating, satisfying and amazing.

“It’s been a life and a living. But we’ve decided to call time on The Strypes. Thank you to all.”

The band’s representation has since confirmed that bass player Pete O’Hanlon and drummer Evan Walsh have signed with an acting agency in London, while guitarist Josh McClorey is working on a solo record and vocalist Ross Farelly is pursuing other musical endeavors.

RIP The Strypes 2011-2018.
