Yes, that’s right: your favorite indie rock band is about to embark on their first-ever tour up the West Coast.

We will be hitting all the best stops along the way, starting at one of our favorite venues, Mr. T’s Bowl in Los Angeles, and heading up, appropriately enough, on July 4th to Santa Barbara where we will be kick-starting the tour.

After Santa Barbara, it’s off to San Luis Obispo, Salinas and Monterey, San Francisco and Berkeley, Humboldt County (where Peewee is sure to have a smokin’ time), Eugene and Portland, Olympia, and, finally, Seattle!

In addition to playing a very special acoustic set at each venue, we’re also showcasing our films, writings, artwork, and wares from the new clothing line.

And, of course, we also plan on having the best time of our lives, making short films and music videos, meeting new people, seeing new places, and spreading the gospel of the Kids to those who have never before had a chance to see us live.

Any press inquiries, please direct to Jessica Kane at Feinstein/McGuiness PR.

We hope to see you there…!
