Indie band Granada breaks up: last chance at the farewell concert!

Austrian indie band Granada have announced their dissolution, which was announced via social media. Founded around the singer Thomas Petritsch, the band has taken a permanent place in the music scene since 2015. When they say goodbye, the members emphasize that creative differences were the reason for the separation and that they do not see a common path for the future. The band plans to part on good terms, which underlines the respectful treatment of each other.

In the statement, the band says it's time to let go, "without argument, but with clarity." In the run-up to their final separation, there are several concerts scheduled to give fans the opportunity to experience Granada live one last time. The last concert will take place on October 11th in the Orpheum in Graz.

Planned farewell shows

Granada have announced a number of gigs before they officially end their career:

• 16. August in der Wiener Arena
• 29. August in der Burgarena Finkenstein
• 13. September im Circus Krone in München

The band was formed in 2015 and released their self-titled debut album in 2016. Their fourth and most recent album "1'30" was released last year and shows the continuous development of their sound. Fans can look forward to a final musical highlight in which the band will perform their best pieces.

Indie music and the journey from Granada

Granada was part of a vibrant indie scene characterized by authenticity and creative freedom. Indie music originated in the 1970s when artists and bands began releasing their music independently of the mainstream-oriented music market. With their raw sound and experimental styles, the band has contributed to the diversity of the genre, which is also considered a refuge for social outcasts.

The indie scene has gone through many changes over the decades. In the 1980s, a thriving culture focused on personal expression emerged in cities such as Manchester and New York. This continued into the 2000s, when bands like Franz Ferdinand and The Strokes shaped indie rock. Granada has found its place in this tradition and left a lasting impression through their music.

With their departure, Granada marks the end of an era that was characterized by lively concerts and a strong sense of community. The indie culture, of which the band was a part, continues to be a space for creative freedom that endures even in digital times. Independent artists use modern platforms to publish their work and make their voices heard. Granada will offer their fans one last chance to celebrate their love of music.
