Ponytail Announces Split

8:38 a.m. · September 21, 2011 · by Nick Neyland

There’s been some back and forth over the past few years about whether Baltimore art rockers Ponytail still exist as a band. It seemed like the release of Do Whatever You Want All the Time earlier this year may brought the group back together, but now a statement has been issued to announce a definitive split. Most bands don’t know when to quit, so at least Ponytail has gone out on a high, but it’s difficult not to feel like there’s some unfinished business here. Read the full statement [via Stereogum] below, and check out the just-released video for “Easy Peasy” from that latest album.

We regret to inform you that the wonder group known as Ponytail have officially called it a day. After releasing their amazing album “Do Whatever You Want To All the Time” they were unable to make the touring portion come to life as the members have dispersed across the country in search of other life experiences. It’s a bummer the world will never see Ponytail live again because it was truly honest music that filled you with extreme joy. An experience like that is rare these days and if you did see Ponytail live consider yourself lucky. Hopefully more bands will come along like Ponytail and shed light on the fakers.

Much love to the future.
