Splitting Hairs - Story of Hair to Break Up


Its with a heavy heart that I wave goodbye to Noise-popsters Story of Hair. Yesterday afternoon I received a farewell email stating that the band have decided to split. No reason in particulater is stated and the brief message just gives thanks to Steve Shannon and Ruth Kennington from Experimental Audio where the band recently completed their debut album 'Cheap Rate' and to all the bands they played with.

The Hairs will be playing their last gig this Saturday 18th April in Tower Records at 1:30pm as part of International Record Store Day. If you can please go along and give them a proper farewell. We at 'The Happiness Machine' wish them the best in their future endeavors.

Full farewell email after the jump.

Splitting Hairs...

It is with sad faces we are announcing our perm-anent parting of ways :(

We'd like to thank everyone we've worked with, all the great bands we've played with and everyone who has listened to our songs. As a goodbye we've uploaded a brand new song, Hold on Holden, which we finished today to our myspace and website and which is free to download. It was recorded at Experimental Audio with Stephen Shannon and Ruth Kennington.

We'll be playing our last gig this Saturday 18th April in Tower Records at 1:30pm as part of International Record Store Day.

It was fantastic to be part of such a thriving music scene in Ireland, we enjoyed every minute of it. One big "highlight" you could say!

All the best

Hairs
