NASHVILLE, TENN. – Today, The 502s announce their upcoming Just A Little Run beginning this fall with stops in Atlanta, Charleston, Nashville and more. The name takes inspiration from their 2021 viral hit “Just A Little While,” which has logged over 170Mstreams to date from their album Could It Get Better Than This.
“Five years ago, Could It Get Better Than This changed everything for us – it took us from tiny rooms to stages around the world,” shares The 502s. “To celebrate that journey, we’re hitting rewind with the Just a Little Run: a run of intimate, sweaty venues. We can’t wait to be back shoulder to shoulder with the fans who have been with us from the beginning.”
Pre-sale for Just A Little Run begins on Tuesday (8/11) at 10 a.m. local followed by public on-sale on Friday (8/14) at 10 a.m. local.
The run celebrates several milestones including five years of “Just A Little While” from their album Could It Get Better Than This and one year since the release of their Big Loud Records’ label debut album Easy Street. Their fourth studio album Easy Street includes playful smash “Your Nonsense Makes Sense” as well as “Summer Fling” that the band debuted on Good Morning America.
Affectionately dubbed “the happiest band on Earth,” The 502s embarked on their The Up, Up, Up The Coast and Across The Pond Tour last weekend,with remaining stops in Nantucket, Queens, United Kingdom, Ireland and more through early September. On their Nonsense All Night Tour earlier this year, “The 502s brought their blend of indie folk and feel-good energy…turning a weeknight into a celebration of music and positivity” (NYS Music).
