Building upon their whirlwind 2018 -- which has seen them go from relative unknowns to late night TV and tens of millions of Spotify plays -- Mt. Joy have announced new tour dates for early next year. After wrapping up this year with a European run and a Philadelphia show opening for Weezer, they'll begin 2019 by hitting the road with Rainbow Kitten Surprise before embarking on some headlining North American dates. Full tour details below.

The band's latest single "Jenny Jenkins" just hit the Triple A Radio Top 10. This follows the runaway success of "Silver Lining," which hit #1 on the Triple A Radio Charts and broke the Top 20 on Alternative Radio. Watch Mt. Joy perform "Jenny Jenkins" on Last Call with Carson Daly: https://youtu.be/wFxga4nWUXc

In little more than two years as a band, Mt. Joy have emerged as "a fast and furious 21st-century success story" (Magnet). They've released their self-titled debut 'Mt. Joy' to praise from NPR Music, Rolling Stone, Billboard and more; performed on Conan, CBS Saturday and Last Call with Carson Daly; sold out back-to-back headlining shows in NYC as well as dates in Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and more; and racked up over 55 million streams on Spotify, with over 1.5 million monthly listeners.

As the band makes their UK debut this week with a sold-out show in London, Mt. Joy prepares for even more action, including stops at Austin City Limits, Bumbershoot, XPoNential, Voodoo, and more, as well as headline dates at Music Hall Of Williamsburg and Bowery Ballroom in NYC. Full tour dates below.

"Richly textured...a major breakthrough." - Billboard
