Where did the band Jonezetta go?

Does anyone know the status of the band Jonezetta?

Jonezetta's album "Cruel to Be Young" was released in 2008 and I love love love it. I was wondering if they are still together, but haven't been able to find any current info.

I tried wikipedia, My____, Facebook, and a few searches on Google like "Is the band Jonezetta still together?" I also checked out toothandnail.com, which is the label that released the band's two albums, but couldn't find anything.

Anyone?

Response by poster: Thanks, Dunk. No details, but I guess it's something.

Wikipedia says:
Jonezetta was an indie band from Clinton, Mississippi, which has released an EP and two full-length albums since their formation in 2002.
Emphasis added. That implies that they broke up.

A commenter on this post said, in 2010:
Jonezetta broke up last year. I cried.
A couple commenters in this thread say Jonezetta broke up after their most recent album. (First result for the Google search: jonezetta "broke up.")

Jonezetta's singer wrote a cryptic post on their MySpace blog in 2009:
hello from the french riviera!
it has been quite a while since you have heard from our ankle of the woods, and i thought a HELLO was long overdue

along our much needed break (hiatus) from the interstate: we have found at some point one needs to introduce a bit of normalcy into one's life...
to all of the wonderful genuine folks we have met along the way we owe a sincere
Thank You

our plans for the future of Jonezetta are yet to be determined

love
robert
They haven't logged into MySpace since July 2010.

You could ask them through their website or their MySpace.

John Cohen, that website has clearly been taken over by a domain squatter. Using that contact form will do nothing at best, or get you on a "known suckers" spam list at worst. That is, unless the former band members have since gotten into the SEO/spam industry.

OK, then message them on MySpace.
