According to Eric Powell 16 Volt has put an end to their career. Here is his statement:
"I have had to make a very hard and heavy personal choice. It is with my deepest appreciation, gratitude, love and respect that I announce this. After 23 years of serving 16volt and riding the insane roller coaster I have decided to put the band on permanent hiatus. There are many factors that contribute to this decision including the retirement of 18 year member, Mike Peoples. We have many skeletons, ghosts and baggage and we are stifled by our own existence, the band has more than run it’s course.
This was obviously a hard decision but a necessary one as an artist. I want you to know, It’s not over. This is the closing of a chapter but the beginning of a new one. I have started a new project with some great musicians and we look forward to announcing everything soon. I want to thank each and everyone of you for the love, joy, excitement and purpose you have given me for the majority of my life. I will never forget any of it and I hope you will continue to go along with us on this next chapter.
Please stay posted here as we will continue to keep you updated as news is developing on the new project. It’s gonna be amazing and we want you to as always, be a part of what we are doing."
