“The group showcases a keen gift for consuming vast swaths of pop music, digesting them simultaneously, and synthesizing them into a grandiose sound that’s so broadly appealing, it seems to contain everything that’s ever made anyone turn up a radio” – NPR “Individual vocal stylings mesh seamlessly with elaborated harmonies and epic melodic arrangements” – Billboard “Catchy, uplifting, engaging track” – Forbes “Exceptional… ‘I’ll Be There’ is the band’s spiritual return to life” – Entertainment Weekly |
(New York, NY – November 18, 2019) – Just two weeks after their album HERE WE GO! debuted at #1 on Neilsen’s Pop Albums chart, the critically-acclaimed Canadian pop group Walk Off the Earth has announced a 23-date US tour. The all theater run, which spans over three months, will be an intimate and interactive experience that the band says will be like nothing fans have seen before. They’re promising that from the moment the concert goer walks into the venue until the moment they leave, they will truly be immersed in a one of a kind experience. Tickets for all shows go on sale on Friday, November 22 at 10 a.m. local time via the band’s official website HERE. The tour comes on the heels of the release of HERE WE GO! the band’s first major release in over four years and since the unexpected loss of band member Mike “Beard Guy” Taylor late last year. The album features the band’s current hit single “I’ll Be There,” which has become a streaming sensation worldwide. Hailed as a “catchy, uplifting, engaging track” (Forbes) and “Exceptional… ‘I’ll Be There’ is the group’s spiritual return to life” (Entertainment Weekly), the single recently hit #1 on Apple Music’s Breaking Pop playlist and is currently in the Top 5 of its massive A-List Pop playlist, as well as making its way up the Hot AC and Top 40 radio charts in the U.S. and Canada. On their new album, Walk Off the Earth has shared, “HERE WE GO! is a collection of songs about life, love, loss and straight-up kicking ass. Ranging from top 40 pop to organic folk ballads to EDM rise and drops, this eclectic album touches on many modern genres but still stays true to Walk Off the Earth’s signature sound.” Fresh off their televised NBA Game 4 national anthem performance and headline appearances at Red Rocks Amphitheater and Wembley Arena earlier this summer, Walk Off the Earth launched HERE WE GO! in May with the heartfelt original single “Mike’s Song” that helped raise thousands for MusiCounts-Canada’s music education charity associated with the Juno Awards-in honor of former bandmate Mike Taylor. The band continues to tour extensively and will return to Australia in January 2020 for a series of spectacular performances, including a show at the iconic Sydney Opera House. About Walk Off the Earth Late last year, the band faced a major and unexpected loss with the sudden death of band member Mike “Beard Guy” Taylor. Mike’s incredible ability behind the keys gave the band a sturdy foundation to soar and create. In the wake of Mike’s passing, and with much difficult consideration, the band decided to move forward and use their platform to honor and share the extraordinary legacy he left behind. The continued chemistry between band members Gianni, Sarah, Joel, and Marshall is undeniable. With Joel’s driving and prolific percussion work and Gianni, Sarah, and Marshall’s captivating vocal styling and melodic arrangements, 2019 continues to be a year full of new music with the release of the band’s highly anticipated fifth studio album HERE WE GO! available now via Golden Carrot Records/The Orchard. Walk Off the Earth’s independent spirit, unstoppable work ethic, and awe-inspiring creativity have catapulted the band to new and uncharted waters with only bigger and better things on the horizon.
