McCafferty Split Up

Sadly, Ohio folk/pop/punkers McCafferty have decided to split up. Read their statement below.

Dear Everyone, I'm sorry.

It is with great sadness and excitement that I inform you all that McCafferty is coming to an end. I am going to be starting to teach soon, and I am required to get a background check, and I don't believe that McCafferty is a professional, respectful representation of myself as a newly trained teacher entering the field of Special Education. Music will always have a place in my heart, but my true passion is teaching. I am leaving the scene of DIY antics to follow my pursuit into adulthood, and I am so happy to have shared my bands music with you all. We truly are the essence of a real DIY band. We came into the scene as a dying star that was doomed to go out in the near future, and that time is now. I have already deleted our twitter/other social media websites but I feel that you all deserve an explanation of what is happening. To all the kids who listened to us and made me so inspired to write I will always be grateful to you all. I am going to keep this Facebook page open for anybody who wants to order our now super rare vinyl. Please take a moment and order these to always remember what we've accomplished because of you all. Each vinyl is a little piece of the memories and inspiration you all have given us, and all proceeds go towards Monkey Boy Records. I never entered the music industry to become famous or successful. I entered it to change some kids life who is just like me with lyrics and stories that they could relate to. I hope you all have enjoyed our music, and I plan on releasing something in the near future as a final goodbye. Just remember, I wrote all of my songs for the friends that I've made. And the ones that I lost...

I want to thank my dad for convincing me to make a band with my friends and show that I was actually capable of something, and for Evan Chris and Wes for all the stuff we have done. Keep an eye out for a release by us in a couple months because im sure it will happen. But if not... order "BeachBoy" on vinyl and support an amazing new record label, and also to have a little piece of the DIY scene forever http://monkeyboyrecords.co.uk/mccafferty-beachboy"

Interview: Moose Blood (May 5, 2013)

Hi there, Moose Blood! Suppy. Who is Moose Blood and how did you get together? The band is Eddy & Mark on guitar and vocals, Kyle on bass and myself (Glenn) on drums. Kyle has actually just joined the band but the rest of us got together last Summer after Eddy had sent us home demos of a few songs that he wanted to make a band out of. We wrote a few more songs over the Summer, played our first show in October and recorded the Moving Home EP about a week after that. What are you up to at the moment? We’re constantly writing and just playing as many shows as possible really. We’ve just released a double A-side single ‘Boston//Orlando’ and we’re working on our next release at the moment which will be coming out later this year. Really stoked with how everything’s going. How was the process behind Moving Home? Moving Home was pretty much all written by Eddy before the band started, everybody added their own ideas and parts to it when we got together to pra...
