Last week Mayday Parade announced they would be releasing their fifth studio album, Black Lines, later this year. Now, several days after the announcement, the Florida band have revealed that they will be the headliners for this year’s’ Alternative Press Tour,’ aka ‘The AP Tour.’
This year’s installation of The AP Tour is the first in three years. The last trek was back in 2012 and was primarily focused on harder sounding bands like Miss May I and The Ghost Inside.
This year’s tour is also the second time Mayday Parade has been featured on the bill. The band first made an appearance on the line-up back in 2009 when they headed out alongside the likes of The Academy Is…, Set Your Goals, The Secret Handshake, and You Me at Six.
Heading out alongside the five-piece will be “sad boys” Real Friends, This Wild Life, and As It Is. The 2015 AP Tour will kick off at the House of Blues in Boston on Oct. 14 and wrap up on Nov. 25 at the House of Blues in Orlando.
