Last year Taking Back Sunday played their inaugural NJ holiday shows, and now 2015’s has been announced. 2014’s had some pretty great openers from the comparatively newer punk/emo scene, and this year does too: Beach Slang. And like last year, there’s local support from NJ’s Modern Chemistry. The show happens December 18 at Starland Ballroom, and so far it’s just this one (last year a second was added later on). Tickets go on sale Friday (9/18) at noon with a presale starting Thursday (9/17) at 10 AM.

TBS also have a few dates this week (some with Citizen, some with Frank Iero) and all are listed below. For Beach Slang, that’s one of many upcoming tour dates, including NYC-area shows with Bouncing Souls and Leftover Crack in October. Updated list of their dates, and streams of two songs from their upcoming album, below.
