Kip Berman reveals The Pains of Being Pure at Heart have split
The Pains of Being Pre at Heart's Kip Berman has announced that the band have split to focus on their own projects.
Kip Berman has announced the end of the road for Pains of Being Pure at Heart via Instagram earlier today. Berman wrote, "Kip here. My life has changed radically from the time I started Pains with Peggy, Alex and (soon after) Kurt in 2007, and I’ve decided to focus on a new project The Natvral."
He adds, "Pains was a distinct moment in my life. I started the group when I first moved to New York and completed our last record, The Echo of Pleasure, shortly before my daughter was born and I moved to Princeton, NJ. From that time forward, I never really felt the same - and the music I was creating didn’t feel the same either. But this is good, both for my heart and my music."
Berman goes on to list the members and collaborators of Pains of Being Pure at Heart, and links to their other projects.
