Vocalist and bassist Dave Monks, guitarist and keyboardist Graham Wright, drummer Greg Alsop and guitarist Josh Hook formed Tokyo Police Club in Ontario in the mid-2000s. After gaining some attention with acts such as A lesson in crime and Blacksmiththe band released their first full length album, Elephant shellin 2008. Three more studio albums—2010 Champion; of 2014 Forcefield; and of 2018 TPC– follow.
“We've been so lucky and privileged to be able to share our music, but even more so we've had personal moments shared with us – from graduations to birthdays to onstage proposals,” Josh Hook said in a statement about the upcoming farewell tour. “To still see the same familiar faces from our early touring days and connect with so many people through music for almost 20 years is truly an honor. This last tour will be the best retirement party anyone could ask for. Thank you so much for being with us on this wild ride.”
