New Kids
The New Amsterdams are a side project no more, with spring plans including a headlining tour and their first album since the dissolution of frontman Matt Pryor’s other band, the Get Up Kids.
Following a March 16 appearance at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, the New Amsterdams will kick off a round of North American dates at San Francisco’s Bottom Of The Hill.
The band – comprising Pryor, guitarist/singer Dustin Kinsey, bassist Eric McCann and drummer Bill Belzer – will head east to the legendary C.B.G.B in New York City and stay on the road through April 15, when they play Virginia Beach’s Peppermint Beach Club.
They’ll be back in California two weeks later to play the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.
