After releasing a new album earlier this year, Passion Pit is hitting the road.
The Michael Angelakos-fronted outfit announced Tuesday they are going on a North American tour starting in January. Joining Angelakos as part of the live band will be Chris Hartz, Aaron Harrison Folb and Giuliano Pizzulo.
News of the trek comes after Angelakos said back in July he was taking a break to focus more of his energy and resources on his mental health and helping others facing similar issues.
Tickets go on sale this Friday (Dec. 1) at 10 a.m. local time, but a fan pre-sale will start Wednesday (Nov. 29). A portion of all proceeds from VIP packages will be donated to charities promoting mental health awareness.
