Firestarter are currently wrapping up a spring tour with Post Season, but they have already announced plans for their next trek around the United States. The Albany, New York pop punk band will be leaving home on May 23 for a month-long tour that will take them all the way out to the west coast and back. Check out the full list of dates after the break.
Joining Firestarter on most of the dates will be New Jersey’s Ampersand and Cautioners. If the latter name isn’t familiar, you might still recognize their music. Until recently, the New York group was known as Far From Proper, and you can pick up their latest release, Rock Bottom, on 10″ vinyl from 90Five Records.
Firestarter’s new EP, titled Forget the Past, is due out on May 13. Pre-order a copy and stream the first single right here.
