Plus, Switchfoot posts behind-the-scenes feature, Copperlily releases new song, Least of These claim “big things are happening” and more.

The Almost will be returning to Australia for seven tour dates in April and tickets are available now for any Aussie listeners…or those of you who would like to book a long flight.

Switchfoot has posted the first episode of a behind the scenes feature for their new album Fading West. The album topped the iTunes charts this week, and it’s available through the shop page.

Copperlily, the new band featuring House of Heroes lead singer Tim Skipper and his wife Stephanie, have sent out early copies of their EP to supporters of their Indiegogo campaign. You can listen to their song “Map To Your Heart” now, and the full EP will be available for everyone this coming Tuesday.

Least of These posted a picture to Twitter with all four band members signing papers, with the caption “Big things are happening.” Either they just inked a record deal, or they’re taking advantage of historically low mortgage rates.

Spoken played their first show of 2014 yesterday in New Mexico, and they’ll be playing shows in California, Arizona, and Texas over the next few weeks.
