Sleeping with Sirens
media release: Fresh off the release of their new LP An Ending In Itself, the iconic alternative rock band Sleeping With Sirens have announced a fall headlining tour across North America with support from Rain City Drive and Shyeye.
Their forthcoming tour will kick off after their appearance at Aftershock Festival in Sacramento, CA on October 3. They will be visiting cities across the U.S. and Canada before their final performance at Vans Warped Tour Orlando on November 14. Tickets and VIP Meet and Greets will be available for purchase at sirensmusic.co/tour.
Produced by Will Yip (Turnstile, Circa Survive, Movements), the new record represents both a homecoming and a reckoning for the band as they revive the restless spirit of their classic sound with the nuanced experience of recent years. Since its release last Friday, it has received wide praise from outlets including Dork, Rock Sound, Knotfest, Lambgoat, Metal Injection, and more. Kerrang! calls this record “expectation-defeating” stating the band has found the best versions of themselves, while CaliberTV calls it their “best album since 2011.”
Kellin describes An Ending in Itself as both a culmination and a continuation, completing the recent emotional and thematic arc of How It Feels to Be Lost and Complete Collapse while reconnecting with the spirit that first propelled the band forward.
The new record includes standout songs including their title track “An Ending In Itself,” the haunting song “Forever/Always,” and their heaviest song to date “Paralyzed.” Exclusive colored vinyl with signed inserts, and a zine CD featuring 24 pages of behind-the-scenes photos and handwritten lyrics are available to order now through the LINK HERE.
Driven by angst and gigantic melodies, this new album marks the first to be released with Rise Records since Feel, which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. Earlier Rise releases include With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear and the gold-certified Let’s Cheers to This, which produced the platinum single “If You Can’t Hang.”
After fifteen years, seven studio albums, one EP, one live album and thousands of shows, the band has built an undeniable connection with their audience consistently drawing devoted fans and delivering electrifying performances that showcase their distinctly unique path through modern alternative rock. They helped to define the early to mid-aughts Warped Tour era and are now experiencing a renewed surge with younger audiences discovering their catalog.
The band, Kellin Quinn [vocals], Nick Martin [guitar], Justin Hills [bass], Matty Best [drums], and newest addition Tony Pizzuti [guitar], continues to hone its signature sound while boldly exploring new creative frontiers. That future-forward perspective, coupled with a deep connection to their listeners, has established Sleeping With Sirens as a household name that’s more relevant than ever.
