Irish rock band Kodaline have announced they are splitting after more than a decade together.

The group, known for hits including All I Want and High Hopes, said they will record a fifth and final album before parting ways.

"We know this might come as a surprise and it's definitely bittersweet for us too," the group said in a video shared to Instagram.

"What we've shared with you has changed our lives forever."

Throughout their career, they entertained fans on numerous tours and played major stages including Glastonbury's The Other Stage and Reading and Leeds Festival.

In their announcement video on Thursday, the group said: "From busking on the streets of Dublin, to playing shows across the world, it really has been the stuff that dreams are made of.

"We want it to end on a high, so before we say goodbye we're heading into the studio one last time to record our fifth and final album as Kodaline."

The group said they will be "forever grateful for the "love and support".

"It's been a journey that we'll never forget and we hope the music stays with you long after we're gone," they added.
