Since the completion of their first full length album, Beartrap Island, Division Day has toured relentlessly, earning a reputation as tireless performers as they made numerous runs through the North- and Southwest. These tours, while quite successful, were not without some incident; in one short year, the boys were slapped with a year-long expulsion from Canada (busted without work visas), and spent a night in jail in Spokane (ridiculous burglary charges, since dismissed). Undeterred, Division Day headed east in October to New York’s CMJ festival, where they garnered an inclusion in the New York Times, and sold out their headlining show at Union Hall. Their success has continued back home with a sold out February residency at LA’s Spaceland, and in Texas, where they tore through four shows within a 24-hour span at this year’s South by Southwest festival. For spring, Division Day will be taking a brief retreat from the stage to work on a new batch of songs and a covers EP, the latter of which will be ready in time for their return to the road this summer.
