The Baltimore rock scene lost another band today. Ponytail, one of the city's most celebrated art-rock bands, announced its break up via a statement from Sir James Winnie of We Are Free Management, according to Stereogum. The band went on a hiatus last year, but came back to release Do Whatever you Want all the Time in April. But this time, it sounds like it's the end for good, based on pragmatic reasons: the members simply live all over the country, making it too difficult to tour.
The band is not leaving its fan empty-handed. Along with the announcement comes a video for "Easy Peasy," Do Whatever's opening track. After watching the video, read the full statement from Winnie below. It does not sound like there will be an official last show.
