Rising indie-rock groups Annuals and Manchester Orchestra will spend a month on the road together co-headlining a fall tour. The two southern-bred groups both spent the summer on the festival circuit and will gear up for the tour by releasing a split 7-inch record. The record will be sold exclusively at shows during the tour and includes Annuals cover of Manchester Orchestra's "Where Have You Been" and Manchester Orchestra’s cover of Annuals "Brother." As an added bonus, the artwork features each band reinterpreting the other’s album cover.

Annuals are also preparing for the release of their digital-only EP Frelen Mas, which contains b-sides from the Be He Me sessions and also includes their cover of the gospel song "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." The joint outing will open October 26 at Atlanta’s Drunken Unicorn and conclude November 20 at Lawrence, KS’ The Bottleneck. Of special note is the tour’s stop at New York’s Bowery Ballroom on Halloween.
