An Experiment split

By | Published on Thursday 28 January 2010

CMU favourites An Experiment On A Bird In The Air Pump have announced that they have split up, which is no good. This means a UK tour that was due to begin on Saturday will now not go ahead.

In a statement, the band’s D-Bird said: “After almost two years together, we lay to rest one of the most exciting, exhilarating and exhausting projects I have ever been involved in. It all started off from an impromptu jam, an impromptu band formed and within such a short time, the impromptu band went full time, touring the world, recording with the likes of Steve Albini and meeting people I could only ever dream we’d meet”.

She continued: “Rather than dwelling on the reasons for ending I think it’s important to look back and reflect on a proud achievement. We had fun, I adored instrument swapping and more than anything, I loved being on stage”.

D-Bird, or Dee Blue to use her new nom de plume, will now concentrate on her other band, Blue On Blue, while C-Bird and X-Bird will go back to performing as a duo under the names Eve Black and Eve White.
