It has been too long since we have touched based on the site but Departures is back in action. With a slew of New York area shows recently, I can honestly say it feels great to be playing music again. This Friday May 4th, Departures is playing LastLetters’ CD release show along with Through Thorn and Brier, Up For Nothing and Crazy and the Brains. The show is at McFadden’s in Bayonne, NJ and is completely free so come out, support local music and pick up LastLetters’ “From Her and Here EP”.

Following this show (which is sure to kick a whole lot of ass), Departures is going back into the studio. (SPOILER ALERT) It may or may not be going on a vinyl split with our buds in Up For Nothing…
June-July East Coast Tour Dates to follow!

Hey everybody,
I hope everybody enjoyed their summer because we have lots of things in the works for the new year; so be excited! We finished up our first US tour and had a great experience meeting so many awesome bands/people/promoters/venues all across the country. We hope to do it again as soon as humanly possible.
We’re also going to be recording some new/old material in the upcoming fall/winter months. Best of all, we’re going to be giving it you for free! So pay attention to the news updates on facebook and all that fun stuff.
You should also come out to one of our remaining shows of 2011. Not only are the shows few and far in between but you can also have a chance to meet our new drummer, Mike Carbone. He likes pizza and punk rock, totally awesome guy.
See everyone on the road!
Hey, everybody! We just wanted to let you all know that we have posted some shows around the NYC area for the next few months. We are currently working on a lot of great things. Keep your eyes peeled for future updates.

We are pleased to announce that we will be hitting the road starting July 15. We will be covering all of the United States, so keep a look out if we are playing in a city near you. We are still finishing up booking the last few dates, so don’t get discouraged if you dont see your city up on out schedule - Theres still time!
Aside from booking our tour, we have been writing countless songs and playing some awesome shows around the East Coast.
We hope all is well with you and we cant wait to see all of your faces next month.
