Music Existence Because of Music, We Exist
On the heels of announcing the October 21 release of their debut album Love Me Forever, Pinkshift have confirmed an extensive headline tour of North America. The dates kick off in their hometown, Baltimore, MD, on October 20 and conclude on November 18 in Boston, MA. The tour makes stops in Los Angeles, CA on November 5 and Brooklyn, NY on November 17. Jigsaw Youth and Yasmin Nur are the support for the tour. In September Pinkshift will open for Destroy Boys on a handful of East Coast as well as play the Emo Nite New Orleans Vacation with 100 Gecs, and Bring Me the Horizon. Tickets are on-sale @ 10:00am local time here and all shows are listed below.
Pinkshift are a heavy, vehemently unapologetic punk band whose songs rail against prejudice and oppression while also examining in great depth the human condition. The Baltimore-based trio have been making their mark both in the U.S. and abroad since forming in 2018, thanks to a string of critically acclaimed singles, and tours with the likes of PUP and Mannequin Pussy. Pre-order Love Me Forever HERE.
Love Me Forever was recorded by Will Yip and over the course of its’ 12 blistering songs, it completely unleashes the full force and fury of the band. To date the band have shared the album’s “nothing (in my head),” which exemplified the band’s agility as they walk the line between riot grrl, punk rock, and post-hardcore, and more recently “i’m not crying, you’re crying” a breakneck journey into the heart, soul and mind of a band that, clearly, have a lot to get off their chest, and who do so just as viscerally as they do emotionally.
