Social Animals Announces Tour With Beach Slang 

New Rise Records signees Social Animals have announced a North American tour with Beach Slang and The Aquadolls this Spring. The nearly month-long run kicks off in Berkeley, CA on March 29th and hits most major cities along the northern US - including the band's hometown of Minneapolis - before wrapping in Washington D.C. on April 22nd.

Since announcing their signing to Rise Records in November, Social Animals has released two stunning singles - "Bad Things" and "Best Years." Described as "delicious indie pop" with a "bittersweet edge" by Clash, "Bad Things" has been featured on SiriusXM's Alt Nation, Australia's triple j, Minneapolis' The Current and more, while most recent single "Best Years" sees front-man Dedric Clark chronicle the woes of putting one's home life on hold while on the road. In a recent Billboard article, Clark further described "Best Years" introspectively, saying he has watched his lifestyle decision "manifest into stunted relationships as those you leave behind inevitably move on and continue to grow without you." But that's not to say the band, who once self-booked 200 shows in a year, would change their upward trajectory - this past December Social Animals served as direct support to label-mates Angels & Airwaves throughout the Midwest and 2020 will see the band release more new music around a heavy touring schedule.
