Adventures was an American rock band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was formed in 2012 by three members of the hardcore punk band Code Orange[2] – Joe Goldman, Reba Meyers and Jami Morgan – with their friends Kimi Hanauer and Dominic Landolina (now also a member of Code Orange). They were initially signed to No Sleep Records,[2] but later transferred to Run for Cover Records.[4][5][6]

Adventures have released four EPs, followed by the 2015 studio album Supersonic Home.

History

In May 2014, the band embarked on a tour with Seahaven and Foxing.[7]

On March 5, 2015, the band played Hostage Calm's final show at Toad's Place in New Haven, CT alongside TWIABP, Superheaven, and Sorority Noise. In April, the band embarked on a US tour supporting Whirr. On April 7, 2015, the band played their Supersonic Home record release show at Roboto in Pittsburgh, PA with support from Whirr, Give, Run Forever, and Swingers Club.
