U.K. post-punk band High Vis will have their debut North American tour this spring.

Announced today, their North American tour will kick off on April 1 inside Brooklyn’s Saint Vitus, and it’ll conclude on April 15 at Philadelphia’s Foto Club. The trek will find its way primarily on the East Coast with performances in Chicago, Nashville, and Washington D.C.

Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets will go on sale to the general public this Friday (January 20) at 10 a.m. local time here. Next month, High Vis will embark on a sold-out headlining tour across the U.K. and Europe.

Aside from touring news, High Vis unveiled the music video for their single “Trauma Bonds,” which can be seen below. Vocalist Graham Sayle said this about the visual:

“Filmed and directed by Jonah West and shot over the course of a year, the video is an emotionally charged portrait of Jamz and Sean. Two people negotiating the world whilst living in the shadow of trauma. The video is dedicated to everyone carrying the weight of grief for those taken too soon, and those struggling with their own existence. When you’re going through hell, keep going.”

“Trauma Bonds” comes from High Vis’ new studio album Blending, which is out on Dais Records.
