The Sidekicks have announced that they've officially broken up.

The Cleveland, OH-formed purveyors of self-stylized "Midwest rock" released their last album, Happiness Hours, in 2018. They toured behind it — including a stop in Toronto, opening for Oso Oso at Sneaky Dee's — pre-pandemic, but have been quiet over the past couple years. This weekend, they took to Instagram to break the news.

"Folks have been asking and it's about time that we let everyone know that we have called it a day," the Sidekicks wrote. "We are endlessly grateful for anyone who has given us a listen, attended a show or put us up for a night."

They continued:

We are equally grateful to all those who have helped us along the way and to those who we met through our travels and time in this group.

So, this is a thank you, from us to you. We hope you had as much fun listening as we had throughout this journey.

If you would like any of the remaining merch we have, there is a link in our bio.

Keep an eye out on our new projects: Nothin', Superviolet, Hunden, starboy_devoid, Mukiss and Orbits.

So long, Soggy Dogs!
