San Diego’s almost monday have announced their headline world tour, THE DIVE TOUR, in support of their new album, DIVE. Listen on Apple Music and Spotify.
The tour begins with an Asia run that starts Thursday, November 14th in South Korea, then starts the U.S. leg, which begins on January 24th in Salt Lake City and will run through February 22nd in Los Angeles. Following the North American leg, almost monday will head to Europe and the UK for additional tour dates. Spotify Pre-sale tickets will be available on Wednesday October 9th at 10 AM PT, and public on-sale will begin on Friday, October 11th at 10 am local time. For more information on ticket purchase and tour information visit https://almostmonday.com/live.
Consisting of Dawson Daugherty (vocals), Cole Clisby (guitar), and Luke Fabry (bass), almost monday continues to expand upon their distinctive sundrenched sound with debut album DIVE. The indie-rock/indie-pop trio infuses endlessly catchy hooks into their catalog of songs about good times, friendship, and SoCal surf culture, winning over fans across the globe.
Showcasing a series of tight, upbeat melodies and toe-tapping rhythms, DIVE is a coming-of-age record and, as Dawson puts it, “a snapshot of us as individuals and as a collective.” He adds: “We take Polaroids of the crowd at every show. We wanted the album to feel like one of those Polaroids where you capture the moment. It might be blurry, but it’s that snapshot in time of who we are and what we like.”
The new offerings from the album further meld the trio’s nostalgic surf-rock tones with modern indie-pop production, honed by producer Simon Oscroft (One Republic, Declan McKenna) . Tracks like funk-inflected synth bop and album single “jupiter” and indie-pop gem “can’t slow down,” which hit the Top 20 on the Alternative Radio chart this week, further encapsulate album themes of nostalgia and the magic of getting older.
DIVE and its singles also feature a collaboration with the artist Dave Bowers, who created all of their single artwork. “What drew us to Dave’s work was its simplicity,” Cole says. “It’s not pop art, but it’s very colorful and stands out, and it just fits the vibe of the album.”
In August, almost monday concluded a 6-week North American tour supporting AJR and playing to crowds at legendary venues including New York City’s Madison Square Garden and The Forum in Los Angeles. The band is currently on a run of shows across Europe and the United Kingdom, bringing their high-energy live shows on the road to support THE DRIVER ERA.

Their debut EP, don’t say you’re ordinary, produced Simon Oscroft (The Naked and Famous, DREAMERS), quickly gained traction with hits like “parking lot view” and “come on come on.” Their infectious energy and empowering anthems, notably “broken people,” along with the Sofi Tukker remix, garnered attention, propelling them into the Top 20 at Alternative Radio.
In 2021, almost monday continued to shine with their second EP, til the end of time, and singles like “live forever” and “cool enough,” earning acclaim from Alternative Press, Forbes, People, GQ Australia, Earmilk, Flaunt, Ones To Watch and more. Festival debuts at Lollapalooza, BottleRock and Firefly and sharing stages with Kings of Leon, Dayglow, Walk The Moon and Joywave further solidified their rising status.
The momentum surged into 2022 with coastal-inspired singles like “sunburn” and “sun keeps on shining,” earning radio success with the latter a top 10 hit on Sirius XM Alt Nation, a top 20 hit on Alternative Radio, and the official song of the 2022 Vans US Open of Surfing. Festival slots, Governor’s Ball, WonderBus and Innings Festival, alongside touring North and South America with The Driver Era, and headline shows in Japan and South Korea wrapped up the year.
In 2023, almost monday maintained their indie-pop prowess with festival appearances including WonderRoad, Wonderstruck, Have A Nice Trip (Korea), and Life is Beautiful and tours with AJR, Weathers, and The Driver Era. 2022 hosted a string of singles led by the infectious “only wanna dance,” which premiered with V Magazine, “coast to coast,” the reflective “life goes by,” and “sweet feelings.”
With over 400 million streams under their belt, almost monday’s feel-good vibes continued to resonate globally as they dove into 2024 with new releases like “is it too late?” (world premiered with Australia’s Triple J) and “can’t slow down,” a U.S. tour with Beach Weather, a summer arena tour alongside AJR and MXMTOON, dates in Mexico plus a six-week European tour with The Driver Era, and a debut album out now.
The San Diego band’s music has been featured across various media platforms from ESPN, CBS, Bravo, HBO Max and Netflix, to FOX, TNT and beyond.

“Don’t be sad that summer is ending because almost monday is here to deliver California coolness for days.” – Teen Vogue
“San Diego’s almost monday brings a whole new meaning to the term California Cool. The alt-pop trio has been surfing to new heights—both figuratively and literally…” -1883
“The San Diego natives are sun-kissed in more than a couple of senses, with their first full-length LP, DIVE, only cementing that idea further.” – Ones To Watch
Los Angeles, CA (September 27, 2024) – Today, San Diego’s almost monday release the music video for their new single “jupiter.” Their debut album, DIVE, is out everywhere now via Hollywood Records.

Filmed in Lisbon, Portugal just a day before the band kicked off their on-going UK and European tour with The Driver Era, the extraterrestrial video shows the band blasting off to another planet. Directed by Harry Deadman and shot on 35mm film, the visual brings new life to the funk-inflected synth bop as the band explore the new-found Jupiter aka a quarry in Sesimbra.
Consisting of Dawson Daugherty (vocals), Cole Clisby (guitar), and Luke Fabry (bass), almost monday continues to expand upon their distinctive sundrenched sound with debut album DIVE. The indie-rock/indie-pop trio infuses endlessly catchy hooks into their catalog of songs about good times, friendship, and SoCal surf culture, winning over fans across the globe.
Showcasing a series of tight, upbeat melodies and toe-tapping rhythms, DIVE is a coming-of-age record and, as Dawson puts it, “a snapshot of us as individuals and as a collective.” He adds: “We take Polaroids of the crowd at every show. We wanted the album to feel like one of those Polaroids where you capture the moment. It might be blurry, but it’s that snapshot in time of who we are and what we like.”

The new offerings from the album further meld the trio’s nostalgic surf-rock tones with modern indie-pop production, honed by producer Simon Oscroft (One Republic, Declan McKenna) . Tracks like funk-inflected synth bop and album single “jupiter” and indie-pop gem “can’t slow down,” which hit the Top 20 on the Alternative Radio chart this week, further encapsulate album themes of nostalgia and the magic of getting older.
DIVE and its singles also feature a collaboration with the artist Dave Bowers, who created all of their single artwork. “What drew us to Dave’s work was its simplicity,” Cole says. “It’s not pop art, but it’s very colorful and stands out, and it just fits the vibe of the album.”

Consisting of Dawson Daugherty (vocals), Cole Clisby (guitar), and Luke Fabry (bass), almost monday continues to expand upon their distinctive sundrenched sound with DIVE. The indie-rock/indie-pop trio infuses endlessly catchy hooks into their catalog of songs about good times, friendship, and SoCal surf culture, winning over fans across the globe.
Showcasing a series of tight, upbeat melodies and toe-tapping rhythms, DIVE is a coming-of-age record and, as Dawson puts it, “a snapshot of us as individuals and as a collective.” He adds: “We take Polaroids of the crowd at every show. We wanted the album to feel like one of those Polaroids where you capture the moment. It might be blurry, but it’s that snapshot in time of who we are and what we like.”
Previously-released singles such as “sunburn,” “tidal wave,” “she likes sports” gave fans an early taste of what to expect from the album: upbeat, infectious tracks about growing up, wrapped in energetic, beachy melodies.
The new offerings from the album further meld the trio’s nostalgic surf-rock tones with modern indie-pop production, honed by producer Simon Oscroft (One Republic, Declan McKenna) . Tracks like funk-inflected synth bop and album single “jupiter” and indie-pop gem “can’t slow down,” which hit the Top 20 on the Alternative Radio chart this week, further encapsulate album themes of nostalgia and the magic of getting older.

“Each song has its own little story and life,” Cole says. “You kind of have to surrender. ‘jupiter’ was one we had to press on through — and 10 months later, there it is. This and ‘she likes sports’ are unique, because for somebody who knows our band, both of those songs feel quite different from what we’ve done before.”
On “can’t slow down,” which features falsetto refrain, slick beat, and shimmering keys, Luke adds, “That chorus had always stuck out to me. That was another one where we took it back and reworked it over a few weeks. It keeps it interesting — every song gets its chance to breathe and have life. Sometimes that’s the same day you start writing, and sometimes it’s a month later.”
DIVE and its singles also feature a collaboration with the artist Dave Bowers, who created all of their single artwork. “What drew us to Dave’s work was its simplicity,” Cole says. “It’s not pop art, but it’s very colorful and stands out, and it just fits the vibe of the album.”

“‘she likes sports’ is a song that sparked from taking breaks on the tennis court while working on our debut album DIVE,” says the band. “We really didn’t take this track too seriously and were just having fun with the writing process which translated into an odd head turner of a song that we love. We’re so stoked for people to hear the song!”

Earlier this year, almost monday, who People Magazine declared an “emerging artist making their mark on the musical landscape,” released their sophomore EP til the end of time. The record’s first single “live forever” was met with praise by many critics including music tastemaker Zane Lowe, who personally world-premiered the tune on his Apple Music Beats 1 radio show, and EARMILK, who described it as “a fun, upbeat sing-along track that enlists a festival-ready chorus sure to rock stages when live touring returns.” On its heels, “hailey beebs” coasts along on a downtempo groove wrapped in warm shimmering keys. Dawson delivers the quotable reprise with playful swagger before confidently carrying the swooning refrain, “I’m alive with you.” Ones To Watch called it the “perfect summer song” and praised the group–rounded out by guitarist Cole Clisby and bassist Luke Fabry–by saying they “should be everyone’s go-to for an instant mood-booster.” Elsewhere on the EP, “this is growing up” gallops from a danceable groove into the rush of an arena-sized hook, while the title track “til the end of time” hops along on tambourine and a funky riff towards a bright and bold refrain. The EP closes out with a stripped-down version of “this is growing up.”
til the end of time follows almost monday’s debut EP don’t say you’re ordinary. Despite being released in the middle of a pandemic, the trio was able to make waves with their first single “broken people.” It landed them a Top 20 spot on Alternative Radio and led to a collab with GRAMMY-nominated duo Sofi Tukker. To date, the group has generated more than 50 million combined audio and video streams and have been declared ones to watch in 2021 by GQ, FLAUNT Magazine, Amazon Music, Shazam and more.
Showing no signs of slowing down, almost monday will continue their festival run at this year’s Summerfest Music Festival, Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival, BottleRock Napa Valley Music Festival and Firefly Music Festival.

Los Angeles (July 10, 2020) – Alt-pop trio almost mondayhave teamed up with GRAMMY-nominated Sofi Tukkerfor the remix of their debut single “broken people.”The track is available everywhere today.
Click HERE to listen.
almost monday (vocalist Dawson Daugherty, guitarist Cole Clisby and bassist Luke Fabry) have already racked up impressive stats with nearly 2 millionSpotify streams and over 653kviews on YouTube following the release of their latest single “come on come on,” the energetic and genre-defying track “parking lot view” and “broken people,” which was met with praise from multiple indie outlets.
The Kollectioncalled “broken people” an “indie-pop single showcasing Daugherty’s powerful vocal abilities aside groovy guitar licks, disco strings and a rhythmic bass line,” and the UK’s Indie Midlands said, “The Bruno Mars-like pin-sharp funk melds with a cornucopia of sumptuous MGMT-esque synths. The Indie-rock sensibility remains at its core but it has a layer of good-times and beach-party bristling on top.” The band tapped Sofi Tukker for the remix to put a throbbing, ‘90s house-inspired jungle pop spin on the track.
almost monday’s debut material artfully mines such influences as David Bowie, Gorillaz, Justice, and Prince while revealing the many eclectic elements that inspired them to make music: Cole’s passion for rock (sparked in part by attending countless blink-182 and Foo Fighters shows as a kid), Luke’s longtime love of The Beatles, and Dawson’s childhood exposure to seminal alt-rock bands like U2 and The Smiths. The band instills each song with the same unstoppable exuberance they bring to their onstage performance.
ABOUT ALMOST MONDAY:
almost monday’s origins lie in the near-lifelong friendship between Dawson Daugherty (vocals), and Luke Fabry (bass), who grew up playing music together. After crossing paths with Cole Clisby (guitar) while surfing, the three multi-instrumentalists headed into the garage and started dreaming up songs with a distinctly California feel. They got their start playing self-booked shows in their hometown of San Diego, soon drawing a loyal following on the strength of their larger-than-life energy, effortless charm, and sing-along-ready anthems.
They’ve gone from performing in the back room of a local surf shop to collaborating with Mark Needham (The Killers and Imagine Dragons). Starting with “broken people” and “parking lot view,” the band will continue to release a steady stream of music throughout 2020, introducing the world to their brand of alt-pop: irresistibly fun and impossibly feel-good.

About almost monday:
almost monday’s origins lie in the near-lifelong friendship between Dawson Daugherty (vocals), and Luke Fabry (bass), who grew up playing music together. After crossing paths with Cole Clisby (guitar) while surfing, the three multi-instrumentalists headed into the garage and started dreaming up songs with a distinctly California feel. They got their start playing self-booked shows in their hometown, soon drawing a loyal following on the strength of their larger-than-life energy, effortless charm, and sing-along-ready anthems.
Since forming in 2015, they’ve gone from performing in the back room of a local surf shop to collaborating with Mark Needham (The Killers and Imagine Dragons). Starting with “broken people,” and “parking lot view” the band will continue to release a steady stream of music throughout 2020, introducing the world to their brand of alt-pop: irresistibly fun and impossibly feel-good.

Today, alt-pop trio almost mondaydropped a new track and accompanying video for “parking lot view” (WATCH HERE, STREAM HERE). The song, from the San Diego-raised surfers and best friends, showcases the band’s signature sound taking on elements of The 1975 and Frank Ocean.
The energetic and genre-defyingtrack is the follow up their debut release, “broken people,” which was met with praise from multiple indie outlets – described as an “indie-pop single showcasing Daugherty’s powerful vocal abilities aside groovy guitar licks, disco strings and a rhythmic bass line” and touted as “transcending the cookie-cutter pop stereotype, instead maintaining a very indie allure.” The emerging band has racked up impressive stats for the track with over 700k Spotify streams and almost 200k views on YouTube to date.

San Diego trio, almost monday premiere the new video for their irresistible debut track “broken people.” “Distinctly poppy, both the track and the video retain a very indie allure, magnifying the overall appeal and transcending the cookie-cutter pop stereotype,” noted The Kollection.
With a nod to Risky Business and The Truman Show, the concept for the video was built around the credo of not caring what others think, being yourself, having fun, and dancing like nobody’s watching. The band accomplishes all of that in the feel-good video with the help of director Caleb Gonz. Watch it HERE.
“This video was made by us and our friends,” says the band. “We steamed sheets for way too many hours, shot half of it at Dawson’s Grandma’s house (thanks nanny!), and invited our schoolmates to jump around in Cole’s living room. All in all, our first music video came out perfectly imperfect.”
With its soulful melodies and shimmery textures, “broken people” delivers a down-to-earth message of resilience in the face of failure. In crafting the lyrics, the now 21-year old frontman Dawson Daugherty drew directly from experience – how he felt appearing on a singing competition show his sophomore year of high school. “It was pretty gnarly getting shut down in front of millions of people and then having to go back to school and face everyone,” he recalls. “But after a while I realized: I shouldn’t stop doing what I love, I should go start a band with my friends. That experience ended up fueling everything for me.”
