Emo and alternative rock band Seahaven plan to hit the road in early 2026 to celebrate the 15th anniversary of their beloved debut album, Winter Forever. The band will be playing the album in its entirety for the very first time, which serves as an opportunity for new fans to get a taste of their sound as well as old fans to revisit the beginnings they’ve seen the band grow from.

“This record is held in a very special place for us,” the band shared in a press release. “We’re excited to celebrate this anniversary with everyone that has come to enjoy it over the years.” 

Winter Forever was released in November 2011, via Run For Cover Records, during a formative moment for the American emo and alternative revival era. With a blend of atmospheric guitars, raw emotion, and introspective lyricism, Seahaven stood apart from their peers in creating music that felt both immediate and cinematic. The album quickly became a favorite for fans of bands like Balance and Composure, Title Fight and Brand New, earning Seahaven a dedicated following of its own. 

The Winter Forever 15th Anniversary Tour kicks off January 22, 2026, in Phoenix, Arizona and runs through February 8 in Downtown Columbus, Ohio, with special guests Commoner and Flycatcher on select dates. Tickets are available here.
