Jimmy Eat World announce 2017 Australian east coast tour

PRESS RELEASE:

Frontier Touring is thrilled to announce the return to Australia of Jimmy Eat World for three headline shows in January 2017 – their first visit since 2015’s sold-out run.

Jimmy Eat World will undertake three shows only: The Enmore Theatre in Sydney on Wednesday 18 January, The Australian Open Live Stage in Melbourne on Friday 20 January, and Eatons Hill Hotel in Brisbane on Sunday 22 January, 2017.

Late October saw the release of the band’s ninth and arguably best record yet – Integrity Blues (Sony Music Australia), produced by Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Paramore, M83) and featuring ‘Sure and Certain’ and ‘Get Right’.

‘The expansive, emotionally weathered Integrity Blues is perhaps Jimmy Eat World’s best record since Bleed American, and even serves as its unlikely spiritual sequel.’ – Pitchfork

‘Integrity Blues is an intriguing and varied entry into the band’s back catalogue. Nothing emphasises this more than the title track, which is an atmospheric turn that certainly leaves a mark.’ – Music OMH

Don’t miss your chance to witness Jimmy Eat World in these special headline shows in January 2017.

Tickets for Sydney and Brisbane shows go on sale Thursday 17 November.

Patrons purchasing a Daily Ground pass ticket for the Australian Open will also be available to access the Australian Open Live Stage – tickets here. (There is no separate ticket for band performance only).
