Pond then heads to Asheville, North Carolina’s Orange Peel ahead of an appearance at the Shaky Knees Festival in Atlanta on May 3. May 7 will see the band at Mohawk in Austin, Texas followed by stops in Houston and Dallas.

Pond comes to Denver’s Ogden Theatre on May 11 ahead of a spot at the Kilby Court Block Party in Salt Lake City. May 15, Pond kicks off a California run in Oakland. Shows in Los Angeles and San Diego follow.

The U.S. trek will wrap at The Observatory OC in Santa Ana, California. Pond have a UK/Europe tour on the books for Fall 2024.

Tickets for Pond’s U.S. dates are on sale now.

As for the new single, “Neon River” follows Pond’s 2021 album 9. On the new song/video, the band — Nick Allbrock, Jay Watson, Joe Ryan, Jamie Terry and James Ireland — said:

This is a full on Pond Gemini song. Kinda tumbles through bucolic Gum (Jay Watson) larping, into Nick (Allbrook) in maximum Aerosmith spandex mode, with a brief detour into some kind of shoegaze instrumental section. The chorus is about the hollow half dead riverside shuffle of so many pre dawns of years gone by.
