Overview
UK band The Music have announced that after 10 years they are breaking up.
In a statement at their official website, The Music state that they will be no more after their final UK shows in August.
They will also play three shows in Japan in July to support the earthquake victims.
'We've come so far together and now it's time to end things the right way and in the place we love the most - onstage playing live,' they write.
'We're going to give it our all for these last times together and it's going to be emotional, but were really glad to get back to Japan one last time where people have been so good to us over the years, and we send our love and thoughts to everyone there who has been affected by the terrible events of March 11th'.
'We'll be saying thankyou to so many people over these dates and we'll start now by saying thanks to anyone who's been with us on this incredible trip. We're all looking to the future and what comes next, but we'll always be grateful for the years, times and experiences we've shared. We're going to make these shows as much of a party as we can, and we hope people turn up to celebrate with us."
