Hey guys, we apologize for the lack of updates lately, but hopefully this will tie everything together for you. I know this may seem to be coming out of nowhere, but Every Bridge Burned will no longer be continuing as a band. We have a had a lot of ups and downs, and it's finally come to the point where it'd be just too much of a struggle to try and keep things going. We'd like to thank Craig at Rise Records for all his help and support, and most especially all our amazing friends and fans we have made along the way. I'd personally like to thank Shawn Gossard and Jess McPheron for being with me in this since the beginning, and believing in this project as much as I did.

Every Bridge Burned is and was:

Vocals:
Paul Fisher (original vocalist, appears on early demos) 
Kyle Meyer (appears on first Foundation demos)
Jake Marvin (appears on Aun Aprendo)
Brandon Boyd (current vocalist, appears on Electric Angel demos)
(honorable mention to Jeremiah Goff, Gregg Martin, and Gavin Fry for filling in)

Guitar:
Otis Archer (original and current guitarist, appears on all recordings)
Aaron Roebuck (original guitarist, appears on early demos)
Geoff Stump (appears on early demos)
Tate Smith (appears on first Foundation demos and Aun Aprendo)
JM Lopez (current guitarist, appears on Electric Angel demos)

Bass:
Matt Bartlett (original bassist, appears on early demos, first Foundation demos, and Aun Aprendo)
Josh Pytka (current bassist, appears on Electric Angel demos)

Drums:
Shawn Gossard (original and current drummer, appears on all recordings)

Keys:
Jess McPheron (original and current keyboardist, appears on all recordings)

All the bands we have toured with that you need to check out NOW:
Hit The Lights, The Fight Within, 1931, Days Fade, Blind Witness, Ligeia, Lions, Catherine, It Prevails, Endwell, Farewell To Freeway, MyChildren MyBride, Oh Sleeper, Recon, For The Fallen Dreams, American Me, Vanna, My Hero Is Me, Across Five Aprils, The Hottness, A Stained Glass Romance, Duck Duck Goose, For Today, Castle Greyskull, Count Me In, and all the great bands we played with.

This has been an experience I will never forget. My little band that started in Wapakoneta, Ohio and practiced in a small laundry room, was able to go on to tour the entire U.S. and parts of Canada, play legendary venues like the Chain Reaction and El Corazon, and have a CD for sale in several countries. I have no regrets and wish everyone the best of luck in the future. I'm going to miss what we had, but I'm looking forward to what's to come.

-Otis/EBB

Well.... guess that's it. It was a good run guys. I think you should put up your early demos for download.

you're early foundations recordings are still on my ipod. i still use them to show people the concept of a brutal vocals. probably my single favorite demo put out by any band. much props for the long run. Otis is still a hardass.

wow dudes its been along time since punching bartlet in the face and drinking milk from a carton while otis starred me in the eyes lol and all the crazy memories like michigan and that kid that we asked if the was a swimming whole and he said it was mucky and we were like what dead monkeys lol! this does kinda suck because playing shows together has been fun and everything you guys went through with all the members and friends. I know you guys OTIS and SHAWN are gonna continue to do great things. I hope to hear new stuff from whatever you guys do in the future i would invest some time in pop you guys would be great at it! ill miss you dudes call me if you are ever in C-bus 567-204-5360

Yeah so I just got the internet a couple days ago, and I just now read this. You guys will definitely be missed. I have literally watched you guys evolve from the beginning. The first show I ever went to was your very first show that you changed your name from Hollow Theory to EBB...actually I think it still had Hollow Theory on the flyer. My point being that you guys have matured so much musically and personally, and it would be a complete and utter shame to see any of you stop playing music altogether. I have nothing but total respect and admiration for you guys and I wish you the best of luck in whatever it is you decide to do.
Much love,
Adam Schmersal
