The band has also announced their new single “Like A Cardinal”, which will be released alongside tickets for the upcoming shows. Fans can pre-save the track now here: https://hawthorneheights.lnk.to/LikeACardinal
They share: “We wrote and tracked ‘Like A Cardinal’ at our recording studio called A Nightmare on North Elm Street. We wanted to roll our sleeves up, grind ourselves into ashes, and prove that we still had some juice left in us. While trying a few more methods and tricks in the toolbox, we enlisted Will Deely, Anton DeLost, and Mike Kalajian to help bring this track to life. We were searching for a heavier, more dense sound, while adding that classic Hawthorne Sugar to each chorus, that has been our trademark for years. We always want a fair amount of tension during the verse and bridge, because that’s our daily life, but we want to make sure that there is plenty of party left for the weekend during the chorus. We are the sour patch kids of emo…a little sour, but mostly sweet.”
Hawthorne Heights is currently on the road for the first leg of the If Only You Were Lonely Tour and will continue the celebration throughout 2026 with shows in Japan, Australia, and UK/EU. The band will also be performing at Sonic Temple Festival, Vans Warped Tour in Washington, DC, Montreal, Mexico City, and Orlando, Roxx Fest, Aftershock Festival, RockOn Festival, Noise and Needles Festival, and Slam Dunk Festival in Hatfield, Leeds, Oberhausen, and Milan.
