So Farewell then, Sequoia

[glenatron]

Blimey. Just got a message on Facebook formally announcing the end of Sequoia. I know Chris had been wondering about quitting for a while - as previous quitter I was well suited to offer advice on the matter - and finally made his decision just before I saw them last but it was still a surprise to hear that they had made the decision to call a halt. I think the others will be working together but as Andy's backing band rather than a band under their own name. That is sort of what we were as Sequoia, but we had some pretty good times and recorded an album that I think stands up very well.


The classic Sequoia lineup, back in 2006

I can totally understand the decision- with so many personnel changes the band they were going to be without Chris would be absolutely different from the one I was part of and the songs always belonged to Andy anyways but I'll be sorry to see them go.

sad that they're moving on, but as you say, i guess they're ready for that.

That's a shame but I knew they were never really going to cut it without you.

And indeed, how could they have?
