Does It Offend You, Yeah? go on indefinite hiatus
The rumours were abound last year that Does It Offend You, Yeah? would cease to exist in the not too distant future. At Splendour in the Grass, lead singer James Rushent dedicated Epic Last Song to Australian fans, saying they may not ever be back and that they may not "even be a band in six months". This proved not to be the case, with that band performing numerous shows over the next eight months.
But that has all come to an end now. A post on the band's official Facebook page states that they're going on hiatus for the "foreseeable future".
From Facebook:
Hello Everyone
We'd just like to announce that DIOYY is now on hiatus for the foreseeable future.
After five years touring the world, playing alongside some of our favourite bands and visiting some awesome countries we've decided to concentrate on other projects. James and Dan are working on a new EP for a purely electronic project which we'll bring you news on soon, we'll also keep you informed of what Chloe, Rob and Mattie are up to. We might do the odd very special gig if our schedules permit it.
Thanks to all our fans and see you on the flip side.
