\nWigan, England-based hard rock group Bigfoot have announced that they will disband following a final farewell tour, revealing this development on February 13th, 2019.<\/p>\n

Bigfoot issued the following statement: \u201cIt is with great sadness that we are writing this. But after multiple meetings and discussions we have mutually agreed to part ways with Bigfoot after we have seen out our upcoming tour dates and commitments. No one is giving up music, so keep an eye out and I\u2019m sure everyone will be bringing new music to you in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe haven\u2019t fallen out and are still good friends but we all feel this is the right decision at this time. The band has been our life for the past five years and we have worked so hard to get to where we are after starting from the bottom. Pulling the plug has probably been the hardest decision any of us have had to make and we hope that people respect how difficult the decision was and that we have considered all factors.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe would like to thank every single person that has supported us over the years through our ups and downs. Without the support of our amazing fan base, friends and family we couldn\u2019t have achieved what we have and we will forever be grateful for that. We have made some incredible friends that we won\u2019t forget, played with some incredible bands, been to some amazing places in the world and have some of the best memories from it all.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe would also like to thank Sean Seabrook for joining us on lead vocals during such a difficult time for the band which allowed us to follow through with most of our commitments without letting down all the fans, promoters and venues that had invested in the band.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will be seeing out all the tour dates that have already been announced and will be planning a final farewell tour. We won\u2019t be compromising; you\u2019ll still get 100% from us at all shows!<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope to see you all out at our final shows to celebrate what\u2019s been one hell of an adventure for us all. We\u2019ll keep you updated about all future activity so stay in touch and don\u2019t forget about us!<\/p>\n

\u201cCheers! Sam, Mick, Tom and Matt.\u201d<\/p>\n

Formed in the spring of 2014, the band issued two independently released EPs \u2013 Bigfoot<\/em> (2015) and Stone Soldiers<\/em> (2016) \u2013 followed by a self-titled debut full-length studio record, issued<\/a> in October 2017 via Frontiers Music Srl.<\/p>\n
