Daylight Change Band Name to Superheaven
Announce Summer Tour Dates with Nothing, Basement, Pity Sex
The band formerly known as Daylight announced today that they will no longer record or play music under that name. Instead, the band is changing their name to Superheaven. Fresh off a US tour opening for Bayside, Four Year Strong and Mixtapes, the Doylestown, PA quartet also announced two summer tours today, one with Nothing and one with Basement and Pity Sex (all tour dates below).
Bassist Joe Kane said of the name change to Superheaven,”Long story short, we legally cannot operate under the band name “Daylight” anymore. So we’re changing it. The music we write, the members we have, and the message we put forth remain unchanged. We will still perform any and all of the music we have written together up to this point. From this point on, this band is called Superheaven.”
Superheaven caught the attention of the music world in 2013 with the release of their debut full-length Jar on Run For Cover Records, which debuted at #184 on the Billboard Top 200 and #3 on the Heatseekers charts. Their buzzing, 90s throwback grunge has received praise everywhere from Pitchfork to Revolver to Noisey to Alternative Press.
