It's a June swoonfest! Indie-pop mainstays Mates of State and indie-pop up-and-comers Headlights have joined forces for a U.S. tour that will take place next month.

Headlights are supporting the album they released earlier this year, Some Racing, Some Stopping. By the time the joint jaunt rolls around, Mates of State will also have a new album in tow. It's their forthcoming fifth full-length, Re-Arrange Us, due May 20 on Barsuk.

Both bands also have dates apart littered through the spring and summer.
