Kate and Kacey took to their Myspace Blog to announce their split from Big Machine Records…

Kacey and I are no longer with Big Machine. It happened a little while back, and it’s one of the hardest things we’ve ever gone through. They weren’t wanting to put out new music quite as fast as we were hoping, and for that and other reasons, we decided to move on.

However, don’t fret…The ladies insist this isn’t the end of the duo. Music will still be made and fun times will still be had.

We’ve decided to continue and record our music the way we want to. Hope that’s ok with y’all . We’re going in the studio in the next few weeks, and we’ll be putting out our NEW record (cross your fingers!) by late spring/early summer!

On top of that, we’re thinking of putting out a couple of “acoustic sessions” that Kacey and I are going to record. We just want to get as much music to you as we possibly can. Also, we may re-issue a limited number of our very first record, Circle Around. (There are only a few copies left in the vault!)

We have some shows coming up this spring/summer (Arizona, Kansas, Nashville, and Wisconsin)…and we’re toying with the idea of putting together a small acoustic show for our “fan club” during CMA Fest. Are any of you hoping to be in Nashville that week?

So, keep your eyes peeled because I doubt we’ve seen the last of the Coppola twins.
