Phantogram the New York duo, Josh Carter and Sarah Barthel released, “Into Happiness” their first song in three years. The band wrote a special letter to fans, noting the song “embodies the personal journey that both of us have taken since we released Three; it’s been a long path, coming out of the darkness and into the light.”

Phantogram is touring North America this summer, kicking off  in Camden, NJ on June 2 and making other stops on the west coast, including Seattle, WA on July 19, Los Angeles on August 3 and Reno, NV on August 16. They will then make other scenic stops across the US including New York’s King Theater on September 5, Washington, D.C.’s The Anthem on September 6, and Atlanta’s Tabernacle on September 9. They will also play festival sets at Life Is Beautiful, Hopscotch Music Festival and others. The full list of tour dates can be found below, and tickets are available HERE.

Phantogram has amassed nearly half-a-billion streams, earned two Gold-Certified singles with “Fall In Love” and “When I’m Small” and has toured with artists like The xx, Muse, M83, Alt-J and more. According to Carter, their music has “lots of rhythms, swirling guitars, spacey keyboards, echoes, airy vocals”. The duo write and record in a remote barn in Upstate New York called Harmonie Lodge.

Their 2016 third full-length, Three, reached heights on the Billboard Top 200 chart (#9) and Billboard Top Albums Sales chart (#5), as the lead single “You Don’t Get Me High Anymore” climbed the charts. Three was completed in the wake of Barthel’s sister’s passing due to suicide, a shattering event which brought suicide prevention awareness to the forefront of the band’s consciousness. The band donate a portion of ticket sales to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
