May 06, 2019 The Get Up Kids By Christopher Roberts

The Get Up Kids are releasing a new album, Problems, this Friday (May 10) via Polyvinyl. Now they have announced some new tour dates for this August and September, with Cloud Nothings supporting. Check them out below, followed by “Waking Up Alone,” another Problems track they shared last week.

Previously we posted Problems’ first single, “Satellite.” The album is the follow-up to 2018’s Kicker EP, which was the band’s first release in seven years. The Get Up Kids features Matt Pryor (guitars/vocals), Jim Suptic (guitars/vocals), Rob Pope (bass), Ryan Pope (drums), and James Dewees (keys). Peter Katis (Kurt Vile, The National) produced the album.

Suptic had this to say about the album in a previous press release: “I’m 41 now, I could never write a song like when I was 19 - all those ‘I miss my girlfriend’ kind of songs. It’s always important to us to write about wherever we are right now.”

Pryor added: “A big part of the reason why we started writing new songs in the first place is that we have things we want to say about this moment in time. We’re still so connected to our past and where this all came from - it’s definitely a celebration of the fact that we still get to do this.”
