Putting a scuzzy bow on their massive year, Girl Tones top the year off with new single ‘Leave The City.’ Out now via Parallel Vision x Big Loud Rock, the song sees the 2-piece band with stars in their eyes after a year of playing all over the world. Formidable flowers pushing their way through the cracked concrete, Girl Tones are in a grateful state of disbelief. ‘Leave The City’ is meant to be screamed from an open sunroof, taking in the night air. Listen to ‘Leave The City’ HERE & watch HERE.

“‘Leave the City’ is about growing pains, it plays on the idea of loving where you are from, but feeling out of place,” the duo says of the track. “Navigating between pain and nostalgia in a place that you simultaneously love and hate.”

Girl Tones took the reins this year and didn’t let up on the control even once. In 2025, they made their festival debut at Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees and Austin City Limits in the US, as well as The Great Escape in the UK. Addicted to the road, they toured in support of Cage The Elephant, Silversun Pickups, The Velveteers, hey, nothing and Sunday (1994).

Throughout the year, Girl Tones have been hitting milestone after milestone. Their singles ‘Blame,’ ‘Cherry Picker’ and ‘Burnout’ all secured Advanced Placement on Sirius XM’s Alt Nation. ‘Burnout’ was featured in ABC's show High Potential and ‘Fade Away’ landed in an episode of The Runarounds. With tremendous editorial support throughout the year, “Burnout” was recently added to Amazon's Best of 2025: Alternative List and Spotify's Editors' Pick: Best Rock & Alt Songs of 2025.

Girl Tones’ foot will stay on the throttle in early 2026 with upcoming tours announced with Peter McPoland and Dexter and The Moonrocks. In May, they will head back to the UK to play The Great Escape, and back in the US in June they will perform at Bonnaroo and Outside Days. See all upcoming dates here.

Girl Tones, of planet Earth, are a high-energy rock duo brought to life by two sisters named Kenzie and Laila. Both classically trained musicians, Kenzie transitioned from cello to guitar and Laila from piano to drums in an effort to electrify sentient beings from this galaxy to the next. Their debut releases were produced by Brad Shultz of Cage The Elephant and released via his label Parallel Vision in partnership with Big Loud Rock.

Their first offerings have earned the praise of Rolling Stone, VICE, Consequence, PAPER, NME, DORK and many others with Flaunt saying, “Their sound is fluid, and yet with each release, they evolve as a harmonious group, developing their unique sound as one.”

In their short but mighty existence, the duo has become synonymous with riotous live shows. Girl Tones has toured with Cage The Elephant across the globe, as well as The Velveteers, hey, nothing. and Silversun Pickups in North America. Making their unignorable festival debut at Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees, Austin City Limits and more this summer, Rolling Stone said, “While the White Stripes — their most obvious comparison — were about controlled energy, Girl Tones are proudly imperfect.”

As the band gets ready for 2026, they have no shortage of new music and new tour dates up their sleeves.
