(BOSTON, MA) -- Rising alt-rock band Slothrust is hitting the road this spring for their upcoming headline tour. The Parallel Timeline Tour will celebrate the band’s latest record, Parallel Timeline. They'll be coming to the local area with shows in Philadelphia (April 8 at First Unitarian Church), Brooklyn (April 9 at Elsewhere), and Asbury Park (April 10 at Asbury Lanes).
The band shares: “It felt amazing to tour this past fall and we are so grateful to get to go out there and do it again, this time headlining. We love playing live music and performing more than anything. Making ‘Parallel Timeline’ come to life in front of people has been a dream and we are ready for more of it.”
Parallel Timeline was released last September via Dangerbird Records and features the singles “Cranium”, “Once More For The Ocean", and "The Next Curse".
Educated musicians all with backgrounds in classical, jazz and blues, Parallel Timeline sees Slothrust leaning into improvisation -- something that in the past has lent itself to the infectious energy of their live shows. Parallel Timeline, mixed and co-produced by industry legend Billy Bush and mastered by Heba Kadry is a masterclass in balancing tenderness with the fierce guitar work Wellbaum has become known for. With a distinct yet unified sound that blends progressive rock, acoustic and pop, Slothrust has never been more confident.
