The Stereo State, from Holyoke, MA, have announced the band will cease later this year. The band released an EP and full-length during their run and will be performing at Fest 12 in Gainesville, FL later this year.
Drummer Brandon Spence issued the following statement via Facebook:
It kills every one of us to say this but unfortunately The Stereo State will not continue past the end of the year. Andy has decided to move on to bigger and better things and we will not play under the moniker "The Stereo State" without him. We were lucky enough to pick up the Usher Raymond of punk rock to start this band.
