Multi-platinum rock band, Angels & Airwaves, have announced a new batch of North American winter tour dates. The first leg kicks off on Wednesday, December 4 and hits major cities including Phoenix, Chicago, Minneapolis, Houston, and more. After a short holiday break, the trek picks back up on Thursday, January 16 for a run of shows throughout Canada and the East Coast. The band will also be playing KROQ Acoustic Christmas at the Honda Center in Anaheim on Saturday, December 7. A complete touring itinerary is included below, with all tickets available for purchase HERE.
Earlier this week, Angels & Airwaves revealed the official music video for their latest song, โKiss & Tell.โ โSo many issues in relationships revolve around needless miscommunication, and just missing each otherโs point of view. This video represents how a few small negative moments between lovers can easily grow into much more destructive interactions over time,โ explains frontman Tom DeLonge. Watch the new visual HERE.
Angels & Airwaves have also been working on their much-anticipated sixth full-length studio album, which is slated for release next year via Rise Records / BMG. The forthcoming effort will be the groupโs first collection of new music since 2016โs Chasing Shadows EP. Stay tuned for more information to be announced soon.
About Angels & Airwaves:
DeLonge, a founding member of seminal pop punk band blink-182, formed Angels & Airwaves in 2005. A year later came debut album, We Donโt Need To Whisper, which hit No. 4 on The Billboard 200 and featured Top 5 modern rock hit โThe Adventure.โ 2007โs I-Empire followed, hitting No. 9 on The Billboard 200 and featured rock radio hit โEverythingโs Magic.โ In 2010, AVA released Love and a year later, Love: Part Two accompanied by a critically acclaimed film, Love, which was shown in 460 theaters nationwide during a one-night film screening and live-streamed concert event titled Love Live. The bandโs last full-length album was 2014โs The Dream Walker, which hit No. 1 on iTunes and No. 5 on Billboardโs Top Alternative Albums chart. A multimedia project, the album was accompanied by a graphic novel, comic books and a Blade Runner-meets Harry Potter short film, which won Best Animation at the Toronto International Short Film Festival. 2019 single, โRebel Girl,โ follows 2016โs Chasing Shadows EP, which was released alongside Sekret Machines, a novel DeLonge co-wrote with New York Times bestselling author A.J. Hartley.
In addition to his work with Angels & Airwaves, DeLonge created To The Stars, a multimedia entertainment company that creates original content across music, film, television, and publishing. To The Stars’ content plays an essential role DeLongeโs To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science, a think tank of artists, scientists, intelligence officers and technology experts that explore, engineer and educate the public about unexplained scientific phenomena.
