SWMRS have announced their second album and a supporting UK tour.
'Berkeley’s On Fire', the follow up to 2016's 'Drive North', will arrive on February 15 through Fueled By Ramen. Its release will be followed up with a European tour including UK dates in Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol and London between March 11 and 16. Tickets go on general sale at 10am on November 30.
The Bay Area quartet shared the title track in August and along with the announcement of the record have also dropped another single from it, April In Houston. The track was premiered as Annie Mac’s Hottest Record on her BBC Radio 1 show and is the type of pop-punk that came out of the early 2000's, before the mention of the genre became almost a dirty word.
The song features intricate guitar lines and thoughtful lyrics juxtaposed with pop sensibilities and a sing-along chorus. "When everybody wants to get me high, where would I go when I'm low?" sings Cole Becker. Check out its video below.
