After six years as an up and coming band on the national music scene, The Graduate is done. The 20-something band, featuring Corey Warning (vocals), Matt Kennedy (guitar, keyboard, vocals), Max Sauer (guitar, vocals), Jared Wuestenberg (bass) and Tim Moore (drums, vibraphone, keyboard, vocals) “accomplished more than we ever could have dreamed” during their tenure as a working indie pop/rock group. Highlights of the band’s career include two nationally released full-length CD albums, several EPs, a European tour, innumerable U.S. tours, appearances at Lollapalooza and on the Warped Tour, music videos aired on VH1 and MTV and the making of “countless friends and memories throughout the years.” Close pals during the adventure, the bandmates just decided it “would be a good time to end The Graduate,” and “move on to new things in our lives.” A few members are moving to Los Angeles, some plan to finish college and most are continuing to make music, while all, “most importantly, would like to thank everyone for all of the support that they have given throughout the past six years
