The band, consisting of members Steve Garrigan, Vincent May, Mark Prendergast, and Jason Boland, announced the news of the split last Thursday, but told fans they would be heading into the studio "one last time" to make their fifth and final album.
They said in a video posted to Instagram: "After over a decade together we've made the difficult decision to say goodbye to Kodaline.
"It might come as a surprise, and it's definitely bittersweet for us too.
"What we've shared has changed our lives forever.
"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.
"We are, and always will be, forever grateful for your love and support.
"It's been a journey that we'll never forget and we hope that the music stays with you long after we're gone."
