时间：2010年5月15日 21:00
地点：愚公移山

介绍
世纪末{zh1}一个天籁之声，美国独立摇滚天团，成军十载xx谢幕。

Copeland 在2003年发行{dy}张专辑《Beneath Medicine Tree》，2005年推出第二张专辑《In Motion》。Copeland 携手新东家Tooth & Nail，以及出色的制作人，录制了第四张录音室专辑。诧异的美妙曲调，主唱Aaron Marsh美伦美幻柔弱的假声，让人感觉这来自Florida的新鲜空气即将刮起另一股风潮。Copeland 对元素的运用相当丰富，特别是吉他以及钢琴，虽然吉他有时候音色口味偏重，但是Aaron Marsh纯净透彻的嗓音使和谐、搭配。

亲爱的朋友们：

经过了慎重的考虑讨论我们作出了一个极为困难的决定，是时候该向COPELAND道别而我们各自走向人生的另一条道路了。我们对于这么长久以来一直可以创作自己喜欢的以及做自己喜欢的事情而深表感激，在这九年中我们去了很多原本做梦都没想过的世界另一端的国家，我们曾与许多杰出伟大的乐队一起同台而成为好友，我们有幸创作了四张令人骄傲的专辑，最重要的是，有这么多朋友喜爱与关心我们的，我们非常感谢你们让COPELAND的进入你们的人生，谢谢你们在这段旅程中的支持鼓励，你们也改变了我们的一生。

请不要难过，我保证这绝不是在痛苦的情况之下而做出的分手抉择，乐团的每一个成员都觉得COPELAND仍然在我们心中占有一块重要的地方，只是，是时候各人该去追寻不同的目标了。我们不应该还没跟所有朋友说再见之前就结束这一切，所以我们计划了一趟包括美国；日本；中国以及亚洲的告别巡演，我们真的很希望能看到所有喜爱支持COPELAND的朋友们一起来参加，我有预感这将会是COPELAND最棒的一次巡演。

经过讨论之后我们并不排除将来还会再创作一张专辑的可能性，不过，这次将是COPELAND{zh1}一次了。

发自内心的深处，我们再次感谢大家的爱与支持。

再会!

Aaron、Bryan、Jon和Stephen

Copeland is an American rock band, originally formed in 2001 by singer Aaron Marsh (who also plays the guitar, mellotron, organ, and piano) with his friend, bassist and backup singer James Likeness, in the city of Lakeland, Florida. Aaron Marsh attended a performing arts high school, Harrison Arts Center. Bryan Laurenson, guitarist, and Jonathan Bucklew, drummer (who took the place of Rusty, ex-drummer of Copeland and drummer on Beneath Medicine Tree) give the band an original sound.

In 2002, they signed a record deal with independent label The Militia Group and released their debut album Beneath Medicine Tree a year later. In 2004, 2005, and 2006 they performed at the annual Cornerstone Florida Festival in Orlando, Florida. In Motion, Copeland’s second full length CD, was released on March 22, 2005. It was produced by Matt Goldman and Aaron Marsh, and mixed by Ken Andrews. The early copies of In Motion that were issued, included a four-song acoustic ep––a compilation of lo-fi versions of songs from In Motion itself, as well as Beneath Medicine Tree. They are currently on a farewell tour. Columbia Records announced their signing of Copeland in a press release dated November 14, 2006.

Lead singer Aaron Marsh has also been featured with other bands such as Underoath on their album They’re Only Chasing Safety, Anberlin on their album Cities and Lydia on their album Illuminate. On July 18, 2007 James made public his decision to no longer be a part of Copeland. He cited pursuing a career as a graphic designer (a field in which he has a college degree) as a chief reason in his decision to leave the band.

As of September 6, 2007, Copeland announced that they had officially split ways with Columbia Records. About a year after ESR they released a B-side album entitled Dressed Up & In Line. It was released on November 20, 2007 and is composed of B-sides, remixes, and a few new songs as well.

On October 29th, 2009, Copeland released an official statement that after a farewell tour in the spring, they would be ending Copeland. They made it clear that it was not a bitter break up, they had just run their course as Copeland. They did say that there could possibly be one last studio album, but the spring tour would be their last.
