Nicholas Petricca Explains Walk The Moon’s Decision To Take An Indefinite Break

Walk The Moon announced their indefinite break.

The frontman Nicholas Petricca shared the news on July 14 with a YouTube video, stating that the band would be taking an indefinite hiatus from touring and making music. Petricca said in the video:

“The time has come for us to take a good long break from touring and making records together. When we do reconvene, that will be a glorious day. And the truth is, we don’t know when that’s gonna be.”

He described the band as being filled with love, gratitude, appreciation, and some heartache for the hiatus announcement. He then continued:

“It is an enormous act of love to carefully lift something like this from the center of our lives and place it gently to the side, out of focus, and let it rest for a moment. It’s a choice we made powerfully to follow our truth, to make space for new creations, for family, to serve our well-being, and, in the long run, even serve the well-being of our community… to hopefully come back one day stronger than before.”

The lead singer thanked the fans for their support and announced that the band’s social media accounts would still provide updates on the members’ future projects.

Petricca announced that the band will release new music before their hiatus and handle some business. After 18 years of performing, the band plans to livestream the final show of their tour, which is scheduled for August 12.
