Topshelf Records has put out a handful of excellent releases over the past few years, and this year four of its bands will head out on Topshelf’s first-ever label tour. The tour showcases how diverse the label is at the moment, with A Great Big Pile of Leaves who make chilled-out mathy indie pop not unlike Minus the Bear, Diamond Youth who have kind of a QOTSA-meets-Weezer thing going on, Prawn who do justice to Kinsella-style emo, and Field Mouse who mix shoegaze and ’90s-style alt-pop. The tour was announced earlier this month, but more dates have since been added including a NYC show happening October 2 at The Studio at Webster Hall. Tickets for that show are on sale now. All dates are listed below.

AGBPOL just played NYC when their tour with Braid hit MHOW (7/26) over the weekend. Prawn play here this weekend when their tour with Foxing and The Hotelier hits The Studio at Webster Hall on Saturday (8/2) (tickets).

All dates are listed, with streams of all four bands, below…

A Great Big Pile of Leaves – You’re Always On My Mind

Diamond Youth – Shake EP

Prawn – “Glass, Irony” (from Kingfisher, due 8/12)

Prawn – “Thalassa” (from Kingfisher, due 8/12)
