FROM A SECOND STORY WINDOW home for the summer!
From a Second Story Window is back home after a their European tour with The Red Chord. The band comments on their first trip to Europe: “It feels great to be back in the U.S., but we had a great time on our European tour.. I would like to thank the following people for making our trip an awesome experience; The Red Chord, Architects, Madd Tour Booking, all the promoters and venues that treated us so well, the kids who came out and had a blast at the shows, the people who let us stay at their houses and party with them, and a special thanks to our drivers Patrick, Ak, and the most kickass tour manager ever Erol. We couldn't have had a better first time in Europe, and hope to be back again whenever possible. As for now we are ready to chill for the summer and have a nice break with our friends and family. “
From a Second Story Window will be taking a break from summer touring to finish writing the follow-up to 2006’s “Delenda”. The band hopes to complete the record in the fall and plans to begin recording in winter. They reassure “we aren't going to be completely inactive this summer”. From a Second Story Window has been confirmed for this year’s Robot Mosh Festival on June 29th and will work on confirming hometown shows as well as a make up show in Memphis, TN. “Since we missed [Memphis] on our headlining tour we really want to go back for anyone who wanted to see us.”
More details on the new record as well as any confirmed shows will be revealed soon.
