Après 9 ans et 3 albums, The Academy Is ont annoncé leur séparation via Facebook...
Pour ceux qui n'ont pas Facebook voici la publication :
After nine years and Three albums, The Academy Is… have decided to go our separate ways.
We began in 2003 as Three young friends in the suburbs of Chicago, with dreams of creating music that meant something to us. Dreams of leaving those suburbs behind and seeing all of the beautiful things that this world has to offer. Dreams of making a difference in the lives of others.

It is now 2011 and we look back at the records we've made, the shows we've played, the places we've been.
The people we've met.

The Academy Is… has made its mark.
We celebrate the experiences of our past, as we welcome what lies ahead.
While we have never managed to make things easy on ourselves, it is safe to say that we have always found common ground in our love of music.
And though we may not be together, you Can look forward to hearing new music from each of us.

The music we have made together is our gift to you. From this point on, The Academy Is… belongs to you. Feel free to listen. Listen as loud as you'd like.

Yours,
The Academy Is…
