LISTEN TO “SHE LIKES SPORTS” AND PRE-ORDER DIVE ON SPOTIFY | APPLE MUSIC | AMAZON MUSIC 

Consisting of Dawson Daugherty (vocals), Cole Clisby (guitar) and Luke Fabry (bass), almost monday exude sunkissed sounds on “she likes sports.” The track kicks off with a beachy guitar riff that compliments the song’s lighthearted lyrics, filled with cleverly-placed tennis references. The laid-back verses of the single, paired with a lively, infectious chorus,  is bound to make “she likes sports” a crowd favorite at live performances.

“‘she likes sports’ is a song that sparked from taking breaks on the tennis court while working on our debut album DIVE,” says the band. “We really didn’t take this track too seriously and were just having fun with the writing process which translated into an odd head turner of a song that we love. We’re so stoked for people to hear the song!”

almost monday’s highly-anticipated debut album, DIVE, sees the band honing and expanding upon the distinctive sound that has solidified them as a rising force pushing the sonic envelope. Through effortlessly blending nostalgic surf-rock tones with modern indie-pop production, the trio creates a uniquely bright soundscape that stays consistent across the album’s 11 tracks. Between previously-released singles such as “sunburn” and “tidal wave” and new songs including “you look so good” and “seaside market,” DIVE embodies themes of youthfulness, love, and friendship wrapped in California-inspired melodies.

Earlier this month, almost monday concluded an expansive North American tour supporting AJR on the second leg of their Maybe Man tour and playing to crowds at legendary venues including New York City’s Madison Square Garden and The Forum in Los Angeles. Next month, they will embark on a run of shows across Europe and the United Kingdom, supporting THE DRIVER ERA. A full list of dates can be found below, and fans can purchase tickets HERE. Stay tuned for more from almost monday.

About almost monday:

Emerging from garage jams and D.I.Y. gigs, almost monday —Dawson Daugherty (vocals), Cole Clisby(guitar) and Luke Fabry (bass)—burst onto the scene in 2020 with a sound that embodies the sun-soaked essence of California. Their debut EP, don’t say you’re ordinary, produced with Mark Needham (The Killers, Fleetwood Mac) and Simon Oscroft (The Naked and Famous, DREAMERS), quickly gained traction with hits like "parking lot view" and "come on come on." Their infectious energy and empowering anthems, notably "broken people," along with the Sofi Tukker remix, garnered attention, propelling them into the Top 20 at Alternative Radio. 

In 2021, almost monday continued to shine with their second EP, til the end of time, and singles like "live forever" and "cool enough," earning acclaim from Alternative Press, Forbes, People, GQ Australia, Earmilk, Flaunt, Ones To Watch and more. Festival debuts at Lollapalooza, BottleRock and Firefly and sharing stages with Kings of Leon, Dayglow, Walk The Moon and Joywave further solidified their rising status.

The momentum surged into 2022 with coastal-inspired singles like "sunburn" and "sun keeps on shining," earning radio success with the latter a top 10 hit on Sirius XM Alt Nation, a top 20 hit on Alternative Radio, and the official song of the 2022 Vans US Open of Surfing. Festival slots, Governor’s Ball, WonderBus and Innings Festival, alongside touring North and South America with The Driver Era, and headline shows in Japan and South Korea wrapped up the year.

In 2023, almost monday maintained their indie-pop prowess with festival appearances including WonderRoad, Wonderstruck, Have A Nice Trip (Korea), and Life is Beautiful and tours with AJR, Weathers, and The Driver Era. 2022 hosted a string of singles led by the infectious "only wanna dance,” which premiered with V Magazine, “coast to coast,”  the reflective "life goes by," and “sweet feelings.” 

With over 400 million streams under their belt, almost monday's feel-good vibes continue to resonate globally as they dive into 2024 with new releases like "is it too late?" (world premiered with Australia’s Triple J) and "can’t slow down," a U.S. tour with Beach Weather, a summer arena tour alongside AJR and MXMTOON, dates in Mexico plus a six-week European tour with The Driver Era, and, on the horizon, a debut album coming later this year.

The San Diego band’s music has been featured across various media platforms from ESPN, CBS, Bravo, HBO Max and Netflix, to FOX, TNT and beyond.
