In their initial press release, the band announced: "Daniel and Kevin are revisiting their storied catalogue and presenting in a fresh, new direction, to combine their histories with a reinvigorated outlook for new tours and potentially new music."[1]
An eponymous live album recorded at various stops on the tour was self-released on 17 December 2017, funded through PledgeMusic.[2]
Reception
Riff Magazine critic Rachel Goodman reviewed a Poptone concert in San Francisco, saying "It was easy to forget just how many amazing songs Ash and Haskins have in their arsenal."[3]
