Shortly after dropping out of their scheduled US tour with Citizen, Hostage Calm have called it quits. The news comes as the band are still riding the wave of the excellent ‘Die On Stage’, and as they planned to tour the UK alongside Man Overboard in early 2015.
In a statement which was posted across various social media platforms, the band had the following to say:
Hostage Calm has broken up. It’s too soon, it’s too young, and it hurts too much.
All planned shows are canceled. We are still figuring out if and when there will be any final shows.
I want to personally thank every one of you who supported us over the years. You shared so much more with us than you’ll ever know. From our music to our politics, you helped make a bunch of Wallingford kids’ foolish dreams a reality. It was the great privilege of our young lives.
To all of you who’ve connected with us, who’ve grown with us, who’ve loved, changed, cried, lived with us – and to all of you who will yet – Just know that we loved what we did, and we could never have done it alone. “I’ve been a hero, and I’ve been a fool. And all of it for you.”
Yours Forever,
Hostage Calm
They will be missed.
