Groove Armada are going to take their cue from The Beatles, and retire as a live band. Tom Findlay and Andy Cato have announced that their forthcoming UK tour will be their last as a live act. In possibly a ploy to drum up sales, the group have put out an announcement saying that they’ll keep DJing and will continue as a production duo, but it’s red rover as a live outfit.
“We’ve crossed and re-crossed the world with this band and crew,” the band’s statement reads. “There’s no other team like it. With their help, GA live became the sound of legendary nights from Mount Fuji to Moscow. It’s not often in the spotlight maybe; but ask the people who have come and filled the tents and surrounded the stages for the last decade. A massive thanks to all of them, for staying with us on a journey from Richie Havens to Saint Saviour.”
