Brand New

Brand New are touring this year, including a New York show happening at Cooperstown’s Brewery Ommegang on August 16 with Manchester Orchestra and Kevin Devine. That show went on sale last week and quickly sold out, but the band have now added a second date happening August 15 at Brewery Ommegang, this time with The Front Bottoms and Kevin Devine. Tickets are on presale now.

Like at the 8/16 show, this one will have the new collaborative Brand New/Ommegang brew of beer for sale.

Kevin and The Front Bottoms also play NYC-area fest Skate & Surf this weekend (May 16 & 17), which we’re giving away tickets to.

Kevin Devine also just released his half of his upcoming split with Meredith Graves. You can stream her contribution here, and stream his below (via Village Voice).

Brand New also added New Orleans and Nashville shows. Updated dates are listed, with a stream of their recent single “Mene” (their first new song in six years), below…
