Alternative Rock band Cartel is celebrating the 20th anniversary of their album Chroma this year with Chroma – 2025, a re-recorded version of the record, including new guest vocals from Cassadee Pope (Hey Monday), and a full US headline tour this Fall.
Featuring singles including “Honestly” and “Say Anything (Else)”, Chroma debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and has established its place in Pop Punk history.
Chroma – 2025 is set to be released on September 12, 2025 via Field Day Records, and this Friday, May 30th they will release “Honestly – 2025”. Vinyl pre-orders will also be available starting Friday, May 30th at 12pm ET at fielddayrecords.com.
Frontman Will Pugh comments:
It’s a privilege to still have the opportunity to share this with all the people who celebrate this record alongside us. It’s hard to put in to words the level of gratitude we have for this moment, and we hope that is conveyed during this anniversary.
The whole idea was to bring Chroma into a modern place sonically and reconcile the live versions of these songs with what is on record. Our hope is that current fans will rock out harder and that new fans will be able to discover these songs in a modern context.
In addition to the release of Chroma – 2025 Cartel will be embarking on a North American headline tour this Fall, kicking off with the album release on September 12th in Charlotte. The tour features stops in Nashville, Brooklyn, Toronto, Chicago, Seattle, San Diego, Austin, and more, concluding with a hometown headline show in Atlanta.
Prior to their fall headline tour, Cartel will be performing at the Vans Warped Tour on June 14-15 in Washington, D.C. and July 26-27 in Long Beach, CA.
