Incubus (April 20, 2015 – New York, NY) Multi-platinum alternative rock heavyweights Incubus have set May 12th as the in-store date for their hotly anticipated new 4-song EP on Island Records, TRUST FALL (SIDE A), featuring their current single,“Absolution Calling,” available on iTunes (click HERE to purchase).
At the same time, it has officially been announced that Incubus will be hitting the road this summer for the 5-week Incubus & Deftones Co-Headline Tour with Death From Above 1979 and The Bots, opening July 22nd at DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkston, MI, and wrapping up at Sleep Train Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, CA, on August 30th.

Presale for most markets will be April 20th, with on-sale April 24-25th. (Please see tour dates below.)
After nearly two years off the grid, conceptualizing and recording new material, Incubus, under the management of Johnny Wright at Wright Entertainment Group, has its sights set on a “non-traditional” album in 2015. Founding member Mike Einziger told Billboard.com, that although the band didn’t have “any plans of making this record,” the new music is “pretty indicative of where we are now. This is what the band sounds like in 2015.”
Pre-orders for the TRUST FALL (SIDE A) EP (click HERE) launched in February with an iHeart world premiere and an appearance on KROQ’s Kevin and Bean program in Incubus’ hometown, Los Angeles. A week later, Incubus – Brandon Boyd (lead vocals),Mike Einziger (lead guitar), Chris Kilmore (turntables, keyboards), Ben Kenney (bass), and José Pasillas II(drums) – departed for two weeks of shows in Australia (including the Soundwave Music Festival with Faith No More and Soundgarden), Japan, and Singapore. In addition, Incubus made their US return to the live stage at this year’s South By Southwest.
Upon their return home to the U.S. last month, the second instant grat track from the EP was released on March 10th, “Trust Fall,” which was introduced at KROQ’s 25th AnnualAlmost Acoustic Xmas concert on December 14th.
The new EP by Incubus on Island Records marks 20 years since the release of their indie debut album in 1995, Fungus Amongus. Incubus went on to release six studio albums on the Epic/Immortal label (the last three produced by Brendan O’Brien), achieving RIAA gold, platinum and multi-platinum success; as well as five live albums. Four of their songs have hit #1 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart, including “Drive” (2000, also Top 10 Pop), “Megalomaniac” (2003), “Anna-Molly” (2006), and “Love Hurts” (2008).
