Picturesque To Tour Area Including Show At House of Independents

(ASBURY PARK, NJ) --  Rock band Picturesque will be hitting the road early next year with Silverstein and Tonight Alive. The six week, full U.S. run, titled "The Get Free Tour," kicks off on January 19th in Cleveland and includes stops in Denver, Los Angeles, Orlando, Philadelphia, New York City, and more.  The tour includes a date at House of Independents in Asbury Park on February 19, 2018.

On the upcoming tour, vocalist Kyle Hollis shares: "After some killer tours in smaller clubs, we couldn't be more excited to step up into these big rooms and really have the opportunity to showcase what we've been working on these last few years.  And to be able to do it alongside bands like Silverstein that we have looked up to since we were just starting out is an incredible honor and we couldn't be more thrilled to get out there!"

Picturesque is Kyle Hollis (vocals), Zach Williamson (guitar), Dylan Forrester (guitar) and Jordan Greenway (bass). The band released their debut full-length, Back to Beautiful, on July 14th, 2017 via Equal Vision Records. The album was recorded in Los Angeles, CA with producer Erik Ron (Saosin, Panic! At The Disco).

On Back to Beautiful, vocalist Kyle Hollis says, "The title 'Back to Beautiful' is referring to the early days of the band where we had all relocated to Houston and I went through a rough break up. We were engaged, and I thought I had life from there on out figured out, but I didn't. It hit me hard mentally and physically. I wasn't my normal self. I wasn't sleeping enough because I kept having the same nightmares over and over and when I was awake I was lost in my own thoughts of why things were the way they were."

He continues: "I felt like I wasn't good enough for anyone, I felt like I was a burden on everyone around me because I was in this rut and I was afraid I would drag everyone around me down into it. This feeling lasted until around the time we finished the record. It was as if I had gotten whatever was making me ill out of my system and my entire demeanor began to reflect the change."
