voxtrot

The Austin indie pop band Voxtrot is calling it quits. Next month, the band will embark on a short farewell tour, which they’re calling the “Goodbye, Cruel World” tour, and then going their separate ways. We’ve got the tour dates below.

In a long letter on the band’s website, frontman Ramesh Srivastava lays out the reasons for the band’s dissolution: “The career path of Voxtrot was truly one of long, simmering build, explosion, and almost instantaneous decay. Slowly, I am learning to replace any feelings of regret with positive memories of how amazing the whole thing was, and how it has, in an unexpected way, fortified my character.”

There’s a lot more where that came from, including ruminations on Peter Falk’s glass eye and Fran Healy from Travis. You can read it here.

Voxtrot leave behind one album and several EPs. Many of the band’s members have new projects in the works. Mitch Calvert is in a new band called International Waters, and they’re gearing up to release a 10″ EP called It Felt Like. They’ll also open two dates on the farewell tour. Jared Van Fleet has a solo project called Sparrow House. Matt Simon and Jason Chronis are playing in three bands together: JC & Co., The Black, and Belaire. – Pitchfork
