Support: SATURDAYS AT YOUR PLACE
Opener: POOL KIDS
Since their formation in 2012, Nashville’s Free Throw has adhered to a clear philosophy: keep moving forward. New music, longer tours, bigger venues. From their debut album *Those Days Are Gone* (2014)—now considered a seminal release in the emo-punk genre—to their latest work, *Moments Before The Wind*, the quintet has consistently proven their commitment to staying in motion, evolving, and exploring new musical avenues. This summer, Cory Castro (vocals), Larry Warner (guitar), Jake Hughes (guitar/vocals), Justin Castro (bass), and Zach Hall (drums/vocals) are heading to Cologne, Berlin, Nuremberg, and Stuttgart. On their upcoming sixth album, the band members have focused on the theme of liminality—the sensation of being stuck between thoughts, moments, and life stages. Songs such as “A Hero’s Grave,” “The Need for a Post-Credits Scene,” and “The Waters of Life” reflect personal upheavals, major life decisions, and unexpected twists of fate. During the recording sessions, when vocalist Castro learned he was going to become a father, the emotional depth and intensity of the material were amplified even further. Working alongside their longtime producer Brett Romnes, they crafted eleven tracks that are at once spontaneous, fresh, and deeply resonant—defined by the energy of the moment and Free Throw’s unmistakable signature style. The German leg of the tour will take the band through four cities, where fans can look forward to an intense live experience. Following a successful co-headlining tour in the autumn of 2025 with Prince Daddy & The Hyena, this time around they will be supported by Saturdays At Your Place. Saturdays At Your Place deliver dynamic, infectious emo-punk featuring melodic guitars and high-energy drumming, making them the perfect support act for Free Throw. Fans can look forward to intense guitar work, driving rhythms, and the unmistakable vocals of Cory Castro. Free Throw are ready to take their audience on a journey between reflection and new beginnings, and to show that the path forward is never straight, but always worthwhile.
