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:

All the bands we have toured with that you need to check out NOW:

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.
