SWMRS will be donating $1 per ticket sold to organizations working on the frontlines of climate, racial, economic, and gender justice issues through their newly established SWMRS Fund. More information about the beneficiaries, which include Third Wave Fund, National Bail Fund Network, Climate Justice Alliance, and Girls Rock Camp Alliance, can be found HERE.
Berkeley's On Fire was produced by Rich Costey (Muse, Death Cab for Cutie) and is due for release on February 15th via Fueled By Ramen. The album is available for pre-order now HERE and limited edition merch bundles are available exclusively via the SWMRS online store HERE.
SWMRS recently unveiled the album's lively new single "April In Houston" during an exclusive interview on BBC Radio 1's Annie Mac's Hottest Record. The song is currently #29 on Billboard's Alternative Songs chart and was the most added song at alternative radio the week of its release. "April In Houston" is available to download now HERE. Prior to the announcement of the album, SWMRS shared track "Berkeley's On Fire". Fans who pre-order the album now will receive immediate downloads of both songs.
Prior to their North American tour, SWMRS will embark on a tour of Europe and the United Kingdom that will kick off on February 23rd in Barcelona, Spain and wrap on March 16th in London, United Kingdom. The band is also scheduled to appear at a handful of US and International radio events and festivals this summer. A complete list of upcoming live dates and ticket information can be found HERE.
Comprised of Cole Becker (vocals/guitar), Max Becker (vocals/guitar), Joey Armstrong (drums), and Seb Mueller (bass), SWMRS released their debut album Drive North in 2016 via their own Uncool Records before signing with Fueled By Ramen (Twenty One Pilots, Panic! At The Disco, Paramore) who later re-released it. Drive North was praised by outlets including Rolling Stone, Noisey, Buzzfeed, and Billboard, and saw the band make their network television debut on CBS's The Late Late Show with James Corden. SWMRS toured extensively in support of the album, and joined bands including FIDLAR, Wavves, Blink 182, Green Day, and All Time Low on stages around the world. Drive North has blared through hometown games of the Oakland A's and San Jose Earthquakes, and through Saint Laurent's runway during Paris Fashion Week.
