Virginia Beach, VA Turnover, Michigan’s Citizen and Kent, OH’s Light Years have announced a national summer tour that kicks off June 22nd in Columbus, OH and winds down August 7th in Cleveland, OH.

Citizen and Turnover each follow up acclaimed debut EPs by contributing two new songs apiece to this impressive split 7”. Both bands’ first recordings for Run For Cover, this split marks growth and maturity for each as they transition from up-and-coming locals to established national artists. Citizen opens the split with two crunchy post-hardcore emo songs. The band effortlessly blurs lines from crashing Foo Fighters-esque drums and and loud guitars to quiet, emotive twinkling breaks akin to peers Basement and Title Fight but with their own Midwestern personality. Turnover opens up side B with rumbling, jumpy toms and a sad, shimmering guitar line before soaring vocals dart in, tugging at the heartstrings and begging for a sing-along. Relatable lyrics coupled with infectious vocal melodies make Turnover one of the catchiest bands making punk music.
