Summer Festivals!

“Hey everybody! Just a quick reminder to check out the upcoming tour dates for this summer. We have shows coming up in Red Deer, Port Colborne, Toronto, Vancouver, and more! Also, if you have been to any shows already this summer make sure you visit us on Facebook. Post pictures and comment on the shows so far! See you on the road! Love, Stereos.”

Cancelled shows

Due to summer scheduling conflicts Stereos were unable to reschedule dates in Toronto, London, Ottawa and Montreal from their original postponed dates, following an injury sustained by the band’s drummer on tour. Tickets were refundable at the original point of purchase, with the band offering meet-and-greets that summer to anyone holding a stub from a cancelled show.
