Chairlift are calling it a day

Chairlift, who released the superb ‘Moth’ earlier this year, are calling it a day.

The duo of Patrick Wimberly and Caroline Polachek are going to focus on solo work, playing their final shows as a band next spring.

Patrick already has extensive production credits, working on Solange and Wet’s latest records. Caroline released a record under the stage name Ramona Lisa in 2014. “The two of us are family at this point, and will undoubtedly turn up on each other’s work in the future,” they say, “but the time has come to take the next step towards where our passion is pulling us.”
