Stereogum magazine has premiered a new YOU BLEW IT! track today, off their upcoming 3-song EP Pioneer of Nothing, due out on Jade Tree on January 27th, 2015. The site praised the new track, titled “Lanai”, saying “the song maintains the same level of intimacy found on Keep Doing What You’re Doing and doesn’t stray from well-formulated vocal harmonies”. The EP is now available for pre-order via Jade Tree.
The past year has been a whirlwind for the Florida quintet who released their critically-acclaimed sophomore album Keep Doing What You’re Doing in January. The past 12 months also saw the release of their Weezer cover EP You Blue It as well as tours across the globe with the likes of Say Anything, The Front Bottoms and Modern Baseball.
The band have also announced their first North American headlining tour, sponsored by Jukely, and will be bringing Tiny Moving Parts, Rozwell Kid and Sorority Noise along for the ride. Kicking off January 29th, the dates see the band traversing the continent for the following 5 weeks (all tour dates below). Tickets for all shows are on-sale now athttp://youblewitfl.com.
