Los Angeles, CA – March 24^th, 2015 – After climbing their way to No. 1 on SiriusXM Alt Nation’s Alt 18 Countdown with single “Contagious,” and No. 31 on the Billboard Top 40 Alternative Song Chart, Night Riots are excited to announce that they will be hitting the road with The Mowgli’s and Hippo Campus this spring. The “Kids in Love” tour kicks off tomorrow, March 25^th, in San Francisco, and wraps up on May 7^th in San Diego. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit: http://www.nightriots.com/.

With praise pouring in from the likes of Billboard, Earmilk, MTV, FUSE, Huffington Post, KROQ, All Things Go, NYLON, AV Club and Filter, and sharing recent bills with bands including Cage The Elephant, Walk The Moon, Meg Myers, OK Go, K.Flay, Step Rockets, The Mowgli’s, Wild Cub and Youngblood Hawk, NIGHT RIOTS is setting the alternative underworld ablaze as swift and smartly as their brooding, melody rich and timeless songs have already endeared them to critics. The Southern California based band has a unique melodic sensibility – delivering transcendent pop music that is both modern and timeless; as well as both sinister and romantic, with the downbeat flare of new wave, ’80s movie soundtracks.

Produced by Eric Palmquist (Bad Suns, Trash Talk, Waaves, Mars), “Howl” was released on January 20^th via Sumerian Records, and debuted at No. 17 on the BILLBOARD Heat Seekers Chart.  Stream “Howl” in its entirety over on EARMILK and Spotify. Purchase the EP on iTunes here: http://bit.ly/1wGx0NT.
