Once crossover sensations Hadouken! have announced an indefinite hiatus via their Facebook page.
“We have recently decided to take a break from performing as Hadouken to give ourselves some time to work on other projects,” the band explain.
“The last seven years have been a phenomenal experience for all of us, we’ve released three top 40 albums and played gigs in over 30 countries, so we want to take this opportunity to say thanks to everyone who supported us over the years. We were never a darling of the press or radio and it’s only through the support of an incredible legion of fans that we achieved what we did. From those that bought ‘That Boy That Girl’ on limited edition vinyl in 2006 to those that danced to ‘Levitate’ in front of the main stage at Reading & Leeds last summer. Thanks to you we spent the last seven years doing the thing we love for a living, which is a privilege that we are truly grateful for.”
“Of course you’ll be hearing from us all before too long. James is currently writing & recording in LA and will be releasing new music soon. Nick, Dan & Chris are still recording with their band Cast of Lions. Other projects will be announced in due course.”
“One day we will no doubt limber up for another round of shows & festivals, so keep in touch, but for now, that’s it.”
“Thanks for everything,
James, Nick, Chris, Dan and Alice”
