tribute to COPELAND

29th of october this note was released from copeland facebook page:

Dear friends,

We have come to an extremely difficult decision. It has come time for us to move on from Copeland and follow other paths in our lives. We are absolutely grateful to have been able to make music for as long as we have. In the last 9 years we've been able to see parts of the world that we never dreamt we would see. We have shared the stage and built friendships with immensely talented artists. We've been afforded the opportunity to make 4 records that we're extremely proud of. Most of all, we feel honored that people have cared so much for our band and for our art. We appreciate every listener who has allowed our music to be a part of their lives. We want to offer our deepest thanks to every individual who has supported us on this ride. It has profoundly impacted our lives.

To put your minds at ease, we assure you this is not a bitter break up. We all individually feel Copeland has run its course in our lives and it’s time for us to pursue what is next. We couldn’t end things without a proper goodbye, so we are planning a final farewell tour in the US this coming Spring, as well as one final jaunt around the world to some of our favorite countries. We are really excited about seeing you all one more time, and we hope it turns out to be the best Copeland tour ever.

It has been discussed and we are not ruling out the possibility of recording one more album sometime in the future. However, this spring tour will be our last.

From the bottom of hearts, thank you for all of your love and support.

Aaron, Bryan, Jon & Stephen



COPELAND is one of my all time favorite band. i really want to catch them live and now they're breaking up. this is so sad to be honest. thinking back to the old days the first time i got their song. copeland has such a strong influence to me trough through music and lyric. i remember all those times i listen to them in my car while driving..

but anyway, i wish them good luck for what ever in front of them. and im looking forward to see their next project. i really hope whatever it is, its going to be as great as copeland. but copeland will always stays one of my all time favorite and dream concert line up..

so to honor them, from this day on i will post their song title/lyric in my facebook status every night for 30 days..

i wish you guys all the luck. and even tough this is such a sad ending i hope this can be a good start for something else..may copeland lives forever through their songs and those whose live influenced by them..
