Anberlin are deep into their 20th anniversary celebration of ‘Never Take Friendship Personal’, and the remaining dates of their expanded US run are all still ahead. The alternative band have a string of midwest and east coast shows running through June 10, each night with support from Emery and Watashi Wa.
The tour arrives alongside ‘Nevertake’, a reimagined version of the landmark 2005 album featuring Matty Mullins on vocals. “‘Never Take Friendship Personal’ was the soundtrack to my life when I was 17,” Mullins says. “To now have the opportunity to step into the role of vocalist for the band that inspired me is beyond surreal. Re-recording this album with my own voice has been a full-circle moment and an absolute dream come true.” That context gives these remaining shows added meaning for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
