Out now: 'Burnout Days' by flipturn; tour dates start later this month

Flipturn has a slew of concert dates coming up later this month. I was really impressed by the Florida alt-rock band's set last September at the Eddie Vedder-curated Ohana Festival in Dana Point, Calif. 

The highly recommended new album Burnout Days, released last month via Dualtone Records, often boasts a laid-back atmosphere with shades of Young the Giant. First single "Rodeo Clown" reached the top 20 at AAA radio. 

Burnout Days is inspired by the band’s journey on the road, as they sort through challenges like self-esteem, codependency, addiction and the twists and turns of day-to-day life in one’s mid-twenties. The new album arrives on the other side of the band’s debut Shadowglow, which found flipturn sharing stages with Two Door Cinema Club, The Revivalists, Mt. Joy and others. 

Formed in the small coastal town of Fernandina Beach, Florida, flipturn first came together in high school, where they worked to turn garage meet-ups into playing college house shows into headlining sold-out dates for thousands.

The band is comprised of: Dillon Basse (vocals/guitar), Tristan Duncan (lead guitar), Madeline Jarman (bass, backing vocals), Mitch Fountain (synth, guitar), and Devon VonBalson (drums).
