Flipturn

Flipturn is an American indie rock band that originated in Fernandina Beach, Florida, in 2015. The band was founded by Dillon Basse (vocals), Tristan Duncan (guitar), and Madeline Jarman (bass) while they were high school seniors. Following their college years at the University of Florida, the lineup expanded to include Mitch Fountain on guitar and synthesizers, and Devon VonBalson on drums. This core group has been central to the band’s development and touring efforts since its formation.

Flipturn gained notable attention in 2018 with the release of their EP, “Citrona.” This initial success led to significant career developments, including signing with Dualtone Records in June 2022. The band released their debut album, “Shadowglow,” in August 2022, which was met with positive critical reception. The album’s release was supported by an extensive tour across the United States throughout late 2022 and into 2023. Flipturn also performed at major music festivals, including Lollapalooza, Governor’s Ball, Bonnaroo, Shaky Knees, and SXSW.

Continuing their career progression, Flipturn released a series of singles in 2022, including “Playground,” the double single “Halfway” / “Brooklyn Baby,” “Whales,” and “Space Cowboy,” all preceding “Shadowglow.” In November 2023, the band announced their “Something More Tour” for Spring 2024. Their sophomore album, “Burnout Days,” was announced in September 2024 with the single “Rodeo Clown” and released on January 24, 2025. Additional singles, “Juno” and “Sunlight,” also preceded this album.
