Lost in the Trees announce Summer tour dates

Lost in the Trees has just announced more tour dates in support of their acclaimed new album A Church That Fits Our Needs. The band will first tour the Southeast with Daytona, the new project from Hunter Simpson (member of now defunct Trekky bands The Beauregards and Participation Award). Then they'll hit the Northeast and Midwest with The Head and the Heart. Also included is a very special benefit performance in support of The Jed Foundation, the nation’s leading organization working to reduce emotional distress and prevent suicide among America’s 20 million college students. The show will be on June 7 at Gotham Hall in New York City.

Suicide is an issue that hits very close too home for Ari Picker. Regarding the show, he offered these words on his connection to the cause:

"Mental illness has been a tall hurdle in my life, and I've needed a lot of help to get to a healthy place. Having the support from an organization like the Jed Foundation can make all the difference. I'm so thankful to all who helped me along the way, and I admire all the people who are making the steps towards a healthier place in their own lives."
