The Organ break up
Canadian band call it quits after 5 years

The Organ have announced that they breaking up after five years together.

The band announced they were calling it a day via Theorgan.ca yesterday (December 7).

Explaining their decision, the band wrote: "We are sad to announce that we're breaking up. We want to thank our friends, fans and family for all the support you gave to us. Thank you."

As previously reported,, the five piece from Vancouver cancelled their appearance at this year's Carling Weekend: Reading and Leeds Festivals blaming it on the illness of a band member.

The band released their only album 'Grab That Gun' in 2004.

Sad but it doesn't surprize me. The singer and drummer are exs, and the singer just moved to Toronto.

The old "singer moves to Toronto" trick. A sure-fire way to slip out of your band without ever having to address the actual problems. Of which I know nothing (*innocent look*).

I guess Katie Sketch is gonna try for that modeling career after all. I really don't understand the modeling industry.

I hope my organ never breaks up.
Not likely as long as I'm married.

I was patiently waiting for a followup record. Bummer.

What's Katie up to now?

Seriously? Modeling what? Boys' wear?

When I saw them live, only one of them appeared to be a female who had experienced puberty.
