Emblem/Atlantic recording group Matchbox Twenty and Warner Bros Records recording group Goo Goo Dolls will embark on a co-headlining tour throughout North America this summer with a Stop at Jones Beach August 17… TIX: http://MATCHBOX20.jonesbeach.com
Matchbox Twenty is currently in the midst of their sold-out North American tour, following a sold-out Australian leg, celebrating last year’s blockbuster album, NORTH. The album exploded into the #1 position on the SoundScan/Billboard 200 after its first week in release. Fueled by critical acclaim — as well as the hit singles, “She’s So Mean” and “Overjoyed” — the album’s unprecedented success marked the band’s first-ever chart-topper and #1 debut.
Goo Goo Dolls new album Magnetic is set for release May 7, 2013. The debut single from Magnetic, entitled “Rebel Beat,” is currently climbing the charts at radio. Listen to “Rebel Beat” here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jUcEgDnujY. The Buffalo, NY trio, singer guitarist John Rzeznik, bassist Robby Takac, and drummer Mike Malinin recorded Magnetic in New York, London and LA with Gregg Wattenberg (Train), Rob Cavallo (Green Day), John Shanks (Bon Jovi), and Greg Wells (Katy Perry). Magnetic is the tenth studio release for the Goo Goo Dolls, who have become one of the most globally respected and influential forces in popular music history.
