Tireless rounds of international touring and mountains of fawning press led to 2003?s Sumday, increasing album sales, more touring, more press, TV show appearances, and a slot on the main stage at the Glastonbury festival. The band produced another EP and an album entitled Just Like the Fambly Cat, before disbanding in 2006. Following two solo albums under his own name, Grandaddy reformed for brief live reunion in 2012 before fully returning in 2017 with Last Place, their first album in over a decade, which was embraced by fans and acclaimed by critics.  A sold out tour followed.
