Amely(@amelymusic) has decided to call it quits. You can watch their farewell video above and read their announcement below.
Dear friends, family, and dearest fans,
We regret the news that many of you have feared, but the time has come where Amely is no more.
This decision did not come lightly and was the effect of a great number of things that seemed beyond our control. It has been a more than amazing journey with our best friends and this destination we’re now reached is not an end, it is a new beginning. Although we have been extremely discourage by the discourse that fell upon us, we have not let it knock us down and we hope that you can stay strong with all of us.
Since the start of this year and even before that we have been writing for what we intending to be our first full-length album. As the chance to professionally produce our music appeared to grow further in distance we took it upon ourselves to record the songs that we had poured our hearts into. After combining the diverse and plenty skills of all 4 of us, these home recordings are all that’s left of Amely. We believe this is some of our greatest work and we want to be able to share it with you. Though it may come as a parting gift, we hope this collection of songs finds you well. It may be the remains of Amely, but we hope it reminds you, this is not the end.- Petie, Brandon, Patrick, and Nate
you know those bands you only come across because they’re touring with a different band that you like? thanks to The Downtown Fiction, these guys right here is one of those bands i only came across because they were touring together. i say thanks to TDF because this band right here is fuckin amazing. they toured with TDF way back when neither of them were signed just yet and i decided to give them a listen. it was so good you couldn’t really help but listen to them and dance in your seat. at least, that’s what i did…
eventually i ended up following their band even after they got signed to Fearless and putting out this EP - which i purchased the day of its release. the vocals and lyrics are just incredible. if you have the chance, just take some time out to listen - and hopefully purchase - this album. it’s definitely worth your money. it was worth mine!
