The tour runs until early fall, with the last stop being on October 2nd in Birmingham, AL.
Who’s ready for live music to be BACK in full swing?
If you’re local to Colorado, you’ll have multiple opportunities to see them, with their first performance in Dillon, Colorado, at Dillon Amphitheater on June 16th! Of course, they will hit Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre for two days on June 17th and 18th. If the mountains call you, they’ll play their last set in Colorado in Vail at the Gerald R.

While attending the University of Notre Dame, they formed the band with Jake Cinninger on guitar/vocals, Joel Cummins on keyboard/ piano/ vocals, Andy Farag on percussion, and Kris Myers on drums/vocals.
