After relocating to Philadelphia and marrying long-time love interest Amanda Vaughn, Redmon joined friends and labelmates Dead Poetic.

Shortly before the release of Vices, lead vocalist Brandon Rike agreed to participate in one last tour with The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus before leaving Dead Poetic.

The Almost released a record entitled Southern Weather on April 3, and toured with Saves the Day and Say Anything, as well as Paramore, This Providence, and Love Arcade to support it.
