Hey gang, just wanted you all to be the first to know about this:
After a memorable seven-years, we have chosen to dissolve Free Element.
This decision was made based on various creative differences within the band.
There are so many people we need to thank, that we wouldn't even know
where to begin. We are so lucky to have made great friends and connections along this journey.
We couldn't have done it without you. We need to give a huge thanks
to our fans and supporters for being there for us no matter what and to so many people who have done things for us that were truly incredible, we thank you. Also, it is especially important that we extend our gratitude to all of you who have been with us since day one. We love you!
For those of you who were excited to hear more out of us us, rest assured
that while this is the end of Free Element, this is just the beginning for
new projects that will be surfacing in the near future. This is a crucial
turning point for many of us, if not all, and we are looking at this as a
fresh start. Some of us will certainly be in projects together, but will
not be writing and performing "as" Free Element.
We are very excited to bring you guys something new and exciting,
whatever it might be, and hope you enjoy it too.
We plan on keeping everyone here in the loop on any and all
endeavors that any of us partake in, and this free album will
remain available for download.
Although Free Element is no more, this free album was only the
start of us creating music for you, and we'll certainly be making
music for all of you as long as we're still standing.
So thanks for singing along, spreading the word, and for sharing
some of the most memorable moments of our lives so far.
Take care of yourselves, and we promise you'll be hearing more
from us soon.
All the best,
Andy Perry, Dan Rose, Randy Roberts, Max Schmidt, and Jake Bayer

Reviews of Free Element
"Keep your eyes locked on these guys, because they have the potential to go places."
- Jay DiNitto, buzzgrinder.com
"Andy Perry has one of those memorable voices that rattles around inside your eardrum long after youve turned off your stereo."
- Cortney Philip, Imige Magazine
"A crowd-pleaser to be sure. Free Element combines an almost metal-like passion with the Top-40 accessability of a power-pop group."
- Christy L. Breithaupt, The Detroit News
