Electronic outfit Emeralds have announced they have broken up.
The confirmation comes less than a month after one of their three members, Mark McGuire, left the band.
The group’s Steve Hauschildt previously stated that the band would continue as a twopiece, but seems to have had a recent change of heart.
He made the announcement via Twitter:
After much thought, I too have decided to leave Emeralds for personal reasons. The band is now over and all tour dates are cancelled.
— Steve Hauschildt (@stevehauschildt) January 18, 2013
Hauschildt has stated he will continue to work on his own.
McGuire, likewise, had recently spent a lot of time working on solo material, including the Surrogate Channels EP.
The band formed in 2006 and released five albums.
