After a long and successful career, UK rock royalty, You Me At Six, have announce their split.
Frontman Josh Franceschi says “When we started YMAS we were kids. We only ever wanted longevity, to travel and to experience life as a group of friends. We feel like on the eve of our 20th anniversary as a band, now is a good time to call time.We’re in a fortunate position where our fans still want to see us live and come celebrate the life of this band. So that is what we will do for 2024 and 2025. We can’t wait to see our fans on the road”
Over a career that spans 20 Years, You Me At Six have had some amazing career highs including two Number One albums, world tours, streams that recently topped over a billion worldwide and faces that have graced the covers of magazines across the globe. The band will embark on a 2025 farewell world tour, to say goodbye to fans, kicking off with Slam Dunk for their last ever festival appearance.
