HOLY SMOKES FOLKS it’s gonna be one crazy SHY FRiEND summer ☀️👻 where you pulling up?

Tag a friend in the comments to start planning your outfits - like usual I recommend thrifting / DIYing as much as you possibly can!! 🪡👔 hmu if you need thrift advice :)

We’re playing new music, old favs, downright silly bits, and plenty more. Get your tickets asap - most of these shows we anticipate to be near capacity 🥲💕

After this, we’re headed out of town for our first tour. Details TBA! 👀

I can’t believe it’s almost over.

We look forwards to every Thursday to play for such an incredible community, and next week we officially end our R4$ residency.

There is nothing out there like - please continue to support them by attending and protecting the space & people in it.

R4$ is the reason why SHY FRiEND exists - it was my first rock show in town, the way I met my first band friends and booked our first real shows. I am so lucky we got to spend this spring with y’all honing our chops every single week to prepare us for the next big step.

We are so sad to end our run, but it’s for very good reason. We are playing around Alberta from May-July, then going on our first tour in August!! And this is all because of our community’s ongoing support.

It would mean the world to us if you came out & joined us on Thursday to give it all we’ve got, one final time. 💕 (and bring a tee if you want us to make you a custom SHY FRiEND shirt!!!)

R4$, R4EVER 🤘
