2018 headlining tour dates announced, tickets on sale Friday
Multiplatinum-selling artist AWOLNATION announced the release of their third studio album, "Here Come The Runts," will be Feb. 2, 2018. Fans can preorder the album starting tomorrow at awolnationmusic.com and receive instant downloads of "Seven Sticks of Dynamite," and current single "Passion," which was the No. 1 most added at alternative radio and currently No. 14 on the alt radio charts.
In the meantime fans can stream "Seven Sticks of Dynamite" HERE.
Serving as a follow up to the platinum-certified debut album "Megalithic Symphony," and 2015's "Run," which included No. 1 hit "Hollow Moon (Bad Wolf)" as well as top 5 tracks "I Am" and "Woman Woman," AWOLNATION's third undertaking sees Aaron Bruno once again at the helm producing, writing and recording.
"With this record, I really wanted to make a rock 'n' roll/pop album," he said. "And I say 'pop' how I grew up listening to it, in the sense of Dire Straits or 'Born In The U.S.A' or The Cars or Tom Petty."
Bruno spent 2016 crafting the album in his home studio nestled in the coastal mountain range separating the Pacific Ocean and the suburbs of Los Angeles where he grew up. The secluded location is reflected throughout the album.
"The record definitely has a feel to it that seems parallel to the vibe of this mountain and the land," Bruno said. "It's like a non-GMO record. There's no fake $hit on there, none of the vocals are tuned. It's all real playing."
In support of "Here Come The Runts," AWOLNATION will embark on a headlining tour with support from Nothing But Thieves on Feb. 11 in Toronto, and tour the states until mid-March before crossing the pond for a European/U.K. run throughout the month of April. Tickets go on sale on Friday.
