Toledo-based rock band Citizen have announced their upcoming album Halcyon Blues, set for release on August 7 via Run For Cover Records. The band’s latest single, “Highs and Lows,” highlights their dynamic sound, pulling from the many directions they’ve explored over the past 17 years. Recorded by vocalist Mat Kerekes and mixed by Tom Lorde-Alge, the album blends the urgency of their early work with the bigger, more polished hooks of their later releases. Having moved between raw emo, post-hardcore, grunge, and indie-leaning alternative, Halcyon Blues pulls those threads together into a cohesive, fully realized statement that feels like a natural next step for the band.

Citizen is set to release their fifth full-length LP, "Calling the Dogs," on October 6, 2023, featuring the nostalgic single "If You're Lonely." The band's introspective lyrics and heartfelt melodies draw from lead singer Mat Kerekes' personal experiences, making this upcoming album a poignant exploration of self-reflection and resilience. With guitar-driven rock 'n roll at its core, Citizen continues to showcase their ability to reinvent themselves while delivering emotionally resonant music.

Citizen is set to release their fourth album "Life In Your Glass World" on March 26th, showcasing raw, unfiltered tracks that defy easy categorization. Their new single "I Want To Kill You" continues to push boundaries while staying true to their signature hooks and urgency. The band's evolving sound spans post-hardcore, noise rock, indie pop, and alternative moods, emphasizing their dynamic presence in modern guitar music.
