Parts & Labor To Go On Extended Hiatus

1:30 p.m. · October 14, 2011 · by Andrew Martin

We hope all you Parts & Labor fans enjoyed this year's Constant Future, because it will be the last new album you'll hear from the band for the foreseeable future. The noisy Brooklyn-based trio announced today that they are going on an extended hiatus following some 10th anniversary gigs in January and February 2012. You can read the band's message to their fans below:

Dear friends,

This January, Parts & Labor turns 10 years old. We’re planning a string of celebratory shows, in which we play selected material from all of our full length albums, leading up to a big 10th anniversary blow out on February 24th, 2012.

Following these performances, we’re going to take an extended hiatus. We feel incredibly fortunate having had a decade of amazing experiences — making records and new friends, performing with so many killer musicians and artists. But it’s time for each of us to focus on personal projects for a while. We’re all going to continue to make music through other endeavors.

We’d like to thank everyone who’s supported us, bought our albums, seen us live, offered us a floor to sleep on. We love y’all. As a token of our esteem, we’re giving away a final song called “No Nostalgia (featuring Todd Bailey and Where’s The Party At)”, which was recorded during the Receivers sessions, but suddenly seems all too prescient.

Love,

Dan/BJ/Joe (Parts & Labor)
