Issues has added Volumes and Sayak Das to their California farewell shows in January. No additional support has yet been announced for the other four shows, but we'll keep you posted when they are.
"Volumes served as a key original inspiration for the formation of Issues sound. Getting to know them and tour with them many times over the years, notably on the Headspace tour, formed some of the most significant relationships and memories we all have. One of the nastiest bands to ever riff and a key pillar in the socal scene ever since any of us had been paying attention, sharing the stage with them one more time will be an honor. Diego forever
"If you don’t know Sayak Das yet you will. His rhythmic songwriting and aggressive genre mixtures immediately impress. Our stories have intertwined for years with our Josh and his drummer David Cola trading licks since like 2016, and more recently with Sky often joining him on stage as a hired gun. A year from now you’ll all get to say you were early
"We truly believe in the vision of these artists and are privileged to have them!"
Issues states that their end is due to life changes and firing their vocalist Tyler Carter in 2020 over allegations of sexual misconduct and grooming (Carter has since responded). Issues released three albums between 2014 and 2019, their final effort being Beautiful Oblivion.
Issues' final shows are as follows:
1/12 Los Angeles, CA @ Echoplex (w/ Volumes & Sayak Das)
1/13 Chicago, IL @ Concord Music Hall
1/19 Anaheim, CA @ House Of Blues (w/ Volumes & Sayak Das)
1/20 Chicago, IL @ House Of Blues
