Groove Armada have announced that they are to retire from touring.

Andy Cato and Tom Findlay's forthcoming jaunt is to be their last, with the pair releasing a statement confirming their plans.

'We've crossed and re-crossed the world with this band and crew,' it reads. 'There's no other team like it. With their help, GA live became the sound of legendary nights from Mount Fuji to Moscow.

'It's not often in the spotlight maybe; but ask the people who have come and filled the tents and surrounded the stages for the last decade. A massive thanks to all of them, for staying with us on a journey from Richie Havens to Saint Saviour.'
