Breakout rock quartet Sleep Theory has officially announced their first-ever headline tour, marking a major milestone in their rapidly ascending career. The tour will span from May 20 through June 28, covering numerous cities across the United States, with additional performances at high-profile festivals. The news follows the highly anticipated release of their debut album, Afterglow, which arrives on May 16 via Epitaph Records.
Produced by David Cowell and mixed by Zakk Crevini (Bring Me The Horizon, Bad Omens, Architects), Afterglow is poised to showcase Sleep Theory’s genre-defying approach to rock music at its best. Blending hard rock, metal-core, and elements of pop and R&B, the album offers a diverse sonic experience, packed with anthemic hooks and emotionally driven ballads. Fans can pre-order the album now, though excitement has already resulted in two vinyl variants selling out, with others close to following suit.
The lead single, “Static,” has already made waves, accumulating nearly two million global streams in just one week, making it the band’s fastest-growing track to date. Accompanied by a recently released music video, the song captures the group’s signature high-energy sound and introspective lyricism.
The band—Composed of vocalist Cullen Moore, guitarist Daniel Pruitt, bassist Paolo Vergara, and drummer Ben Pruitt—will embark on a thrilling North American trek, bringing their electrifying performances to both intimate club venues and major festival stages.
Tour support will come from a stellar lineup of Nevertel, Oxymorrons, and Stray View, ensuring an unforgettable live music experience. The tour will kick off in Birmingham, Alabama, on May 20, before winding through the country and concluding in the band’s hometown Memphis, Tennessee, on June 28.

Select festival dates include performances at Welcome To Rockville, Buzzfest, and Inkcarceration, placing Sleep Theory among some of the biggest names in modern rock.
Sleep Theory has quickly become one of the most talked-about acts in heavy music. Having earned praise from Jelly Roll and David Draiman (Disturbed), the band has shared stages with Shinedown, Falling In Reverse, and Beartooth. Their meteoric rise is reflecting in their ranking as the fifth most-played artist on Active Rock radio within just two years of launching their career.
Recognized by Revolver, Loudwire, and Amazing Music as an Artist to Watch in 2025, Sleep Theory is solidifying their place as a force to be reckoned with. With Afterglow, they are proving they have the staying power to dominate the rock scene for years to come.
