Tigers Jaw have recently announced their premature hiatus earlier today, citing “personal reasons” as the cause of a split among the five band mates.
The group still plans on touring the US in a few months, along with doing a run of European dates with The Menzingers in August.

January 29th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor News has just broken that Philadelphia, Pennsylvania based punk act Modern Baseball just signed with Boston indie/punk label Run For Cover Records. Congrats guys!
Quick question, can someone tell me why so many good bands are coming out of the eastern end of the Keystone State? Snowing, Literature, Tigers Jaw, Title Fight… seriously, what are they treating the water with down there?
Which isn’t to say that Modern Baseball doesn’t have a sound of their own. Imagine a less Canadian Weakerthans chock full o’ youthful energy and you’d be close. Also, on a few songs, including …

December 29th, 2012 Dayton O'Connor Record label Run For Cover just released the latest installment of their Small Talks series, this time profiling Dan “Soupy” Campbell of The Wonder Years. For those of you not in the know, the Small Talks interviews provide fun, vignette-y views into the lives of some of the label’s favorite artists.
Campbell’s Small Talks is no different. It sounds like band life has been mighty good to The Wonder Years’ frontman; the first question of the feature is, “So now you’re not sad anymore, what’s good?”
Between the anecdotes of botched tattoos, pigeon thanksgiving dolls, and getting swarmed by …

December 18th, 2012 Dayton O'Connor Late last night Topshelf Records revealed an upcoming “4-way split” featuring contributions from Code Orange Kids, Tigers Jaw, Self Defense Family, and The World is a Beautiful Place & I am No Longer Afraid To Die.
When asked for comment on news of the release, sensitive punk kids responded by staring at the floor, smiling bashfully, and murmured in a fashion that appeared to indicate excitement.
Further details regarding the split are scant at this time. Topshelf will be handling the distribution of the release alongside Run For Cover Records and the record will be dropping …

The appropriately titled release is only three tracks and comes out on Run For Cover Records. It is surprisingly quiet, and more of an acoustic EP than a live album seemingly implied by the title. It’s definitely a must have for fans of the band.
Tigers Jaw currently only have two shows lined up on their schedule: a show in Philadelphia on November 30, and they are opening for The Guru‘s Go Easy album release show at the Space in Hamden, Connecticut …

June 15th, 2012 Grant Trimboli Tigers Jaw have released a stream and download of their alternate version of the song “Chemicals,” with keyboardist Brianna Collins both singing and playing piano solo.
This track is both haunting and beautiful at the same time and UTG encourages you all to take it for as many spins as you can. “Chemicals” alternate version was put out in 2011 on an exclusive flexi-7″ for Run For Cover Records’ 2011 CMJ showcase.
Please feel free to listen and download Tigers Jaw’s song after the jump and let us know how much you enjoyed it!
April 8th, 2012 Tyler Osborne Upcoming Run For Cover Records split between Tigers Jaw and Black Clouds has been delayed due to some legality issues regarding Black Clouds name.
Supposedly there’s another band with the same name that claim rights, so Run For Cover has to reprint all of the sleeves so that there isn’t some sort of infringement. Lame, but the law is the law. The delay shouldn’t be too long (estimated 7-10 days), but it still stinks nonetheless. Check out the statement after the break about the problem, and let UTG know what you think!
