A few beautiful moments from our final Fountain of Youth Tour show at Pier Six Pavillion in Baltimore, captured by our old friend Mark Brown. Mark booked some of our earliest Baltimore shows, so it feels especially meaningful to be sharing his photographs from that night.

Baltimore has been our second home for many years, and ending this tour there meant a great deal to us. Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make it such a special night.

What a night. What a tour.

Thank you, Baltimore, for helping us close out the Fountain of Youth Tour at Pier Six Pavillion and Unbooking for putting on the show.

Huge thanks to our friends Dan Deacon and Ed Schraders Music Beat for sharing the stage and to everyone who came out to these shows across North Carolina and Baltimore. Returning to these towns and rooms meant more to us than we can really put into words.

Thank you for celebrating 20 years of Future Islands with us.

We’ve been digging through the archives and found some photos from when we were recording “Pinnochio” and “The Happiness of Being Twice” in Oakland, CA, during our first full U.S. tour. Both songs appear on our upcoming collection From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth.

Sign up to our Openstage via the link in our bio for more exclusive moments like this.

Two more songs from From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth are out now — a collection of rare and long-hidden recordings tracing our journey from house shows and small rooms to the world this music opened up for us.

“One Day” (originally released on the “Seasons (Waiting on You)” 7”) and “The Ink Well” (from the split 7” with Lonnie Walker) are available now, wherever you stream music. Two more pieces of this story, brought back into the light.

From a Hole in the Floor to a Fountain of Youth is out May 22. Pre-order via the link in bio.
