Today, Hurray for the Riff Raff has shared their first new single and music video of 2025, along with the announcement of dozens of U.S. tour dates for spring and summer. “Pyramid Scheme” embodies The Past Is Still Alive‘s spirit of resilience and rebellion. Filled with poetic prowess and personal truths, the song conveys a contempt for the dark side of the Internet and the alienating, undermining effects it has on artists and outsiders.

As for the tour, Hurray for the Riff Raff will be headlining more than 15 newly added U.S. tour dates, including stops in Los Angeles and numerous shows across the West Coast, East Coast and Midwest. The shows feature support from Merce Lemon and will follow an extensive run with Bright Eyes that begins next week, in addition to dates with Waxahatchee and MJ Lenderman, festivals and more to still be revealed for summer.
