Bayside Share 3-track The Red EP & Announce 2023 Just Like Home Tour with I Am The Avalanche & KOYO (Hopeless Records)

Esteemed Punk/Emo act Bayside has released The Red EP, this past Friday, via Hopeless Records. The three-song collection features latest singles, "Strangest Faces" and "Good Advice," as well as one new previosuly unreleased song, "Just Like Home." The Red EP marks Bayside's first new music since 2019 with their eighth full-length album, Interrobang‽. The band—Anthony Raneri, Jack O'Shea, Nick Ghanbarian & Chris Guglielmo—shares: "we wanted to go out and do some places that are a little smaller than what we've been doing the last few years. We really cut our teeth in a lot of these venues and we can't wait to get back to some of them for the first time in ages."


In addition to the new EP, Bayside have announced that they will be hitting the road this winter for The Just Like Home Tour. The line-up pays homage to the band's local scene with fellow New Yorkers, I Am The Avalanche & KOYO, providing support throughout the month-long run. Bayside's Just Like Home Tour kicks off on February 10th in Houston with stops to follow in Los Angeles, Baltimore, Boston, New York City, Philly, Jersey City, and more. V.I.P. packages, which include a Custom Signed Bayside Epiphone LP Special Il Guitar, an acoustic soundcheck, a signed poster, a souvenir laminate with lanyard, and more, are on sale now at Shofetti with general ticket on-sale now ongoing.


Back in 2021, Bayside celebrated more than two decades with the briefly ill-fated 20 21 Years of Really Bad Luck Anniversary Tour. For the past 21 years, Queens-based Bayside has represented a lifestyle, a counter-culture, and a deeply held conviction, diverse in thought and background, but united by a shared desire for authentic expression. At their core, Bayside is a band that has constantly proved that music is not just about gimmicks and ephemeral trends, but a timeless reflection of our lives and current times. It's through this timelessness and consistency that they continue to cultivate a cult-like following that lives and breathes everything the band creates.


Bayside has always focused on creating songs that are relevant to people who want substance, rather than being relegated to one genre. And while many bands would coast on their past success, Bayside rejects the premise and proves time and again that the best is yet to come. With The Red EP, fans see Bayside refining their unique brand of Punk Rock even further. The EP's three songs offer powerful, hard-hitting melodies that strongly draw upon the band's heavier influences. While not exactly a Halloween-themed EP, these three songs, especially, "Strangest Faces," boast an underlying eerie vibe and would fit in perfectly on your spook-tacular playlists. Bayside's The Red EP is now available on Hopeless Records. Tickets for Bayside, I Am The Avalanche & KOYO's Just Like Home Tour for next year are now on sale to purchase. A press release we recieved assures, in closing, "fans can look forward to more new music coming soon."
