Brooklyn’s The Shondes announce first national headlining tour since their game-changing year of critical praise and supporting Against Me! on tour. Hailey Wojcik to support.
Before The Shondes’ fourth album The Garden cracked the seal on the mainstream for the band, frontwoman Louisa Solomon said it was “an album about growing up.” She had no idea how right she was. After its release they experienced a game-changing wave of critical praise, and got the opportunity to go on a national tour supporting punk legends Against Me! The scrappy, heart-on-their-sleeves rock band has truly come into its own, and will kick off 2015 with a headlining national tour, supported by indie goth darling Hailey Wojcik. Today they have given their fans a taste of the their exuberant live show with this adorable new tour video for the Garden’s final track “The Promise,” featuring backstage (and on-stage!) hijinks from the Against Me! tour.

The 2015 tour is an opportunity to share their remarkable stage spirit for the first time with everyone who first heard about the band in print. For those who worship at the Church of Bruce, welcome to the Shul of Shonde, where New York magic and gritty rock ‘n roll bombast offer catharsis for the brokenhearted. The band wraps the tour up at Brooklyn’s THE ROCK SHOP on April 2, just in time for Passover.
