After a decade of making music together, Saskwatch have decided "...it's time to move on."

The Melbourne six-piece are calling it a day, and have announced one last farewell show before they hang up the instruments for good "after 10 years, 4 albums and hundreds of shows together."

They'll be taking over The Curtin, in their hometown, on Saturday 26 October with support from good friends Jim Lawrie, Ella Thompson, and DJ Chris Gill. Find all the details at saskwatch.com.au.

"Thank you for all your support over the years," Saskwatch wrote online Wednesday afternoon. "To anyone who bought a record, came to a show or just listened to our songs, we feel very grateful for all the opportunities we've had."

"It's not often that you get to be a in a band with your friends for 10 years, to write and record your own music, and to perform and meet people."

Saskwatch - comprising of powerhouse vocalist Nkechi Anele (aka host of triple j's Roots N All), trumpeter/songwriter Liam McGorry, drummer Olaf Scott, bassist Tom Pettit, and multi-instrumentalists Rob Muinos and Sam Raines - originally formed in 2009 as a nine-piece.

Their sound has evolved from authentic soul-funk swagger (on 2012 Leave It All Behind and 2014's Nose Dive) to playfully experimental (2015's Sorry I Let It Come Between Us) and kaleidoscopic, genre-ignorant 'bit-of-everything' indie-pop (2017's Manual Override).

Kicking off their career with a famed three year on-and-off residency at Melbourne's Cherry Bar, the band developed a rep for a killer live show, leading them to play Glastonbury, and some of Australia's biggest festivals, including Splendour In The Grass, WOMADelaide, Bluesfest, Meredith, and Falls.

They've also shared stages with The Rubens, Cub Sport, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Charles Bradley, and the legendary Earth, Wind and Fire.
