Health problems force The Long Blondes to split

Sad news, The Long Blondes have decided to call it a day. Guitarist and main lyricist Dorian Cox (on the far right) has had some unspecified health problems over the summer which had affected the groups ability to tour, but in a blog post yesterday he goes into a little more detail “I suffered from a stroke in June and unfortunately I do not know when / if I will be well enough to play guitar again.” (link here). The group had just released their second album ‘Couples’ in April this year and their singles compilation Singles just recently. Thoughts and well wishes go out to Dorian and his family.
