Matchbox Twenty Returning to the Road First Tour in Over Four Years
November 12, 2007
Melisma/Atlantic recording group Matchbox Twenty has announced their first North American concert tour in over four years. The cross-country “Exile In America” itinerary will also feature Special Guests Alanis Morissette and MUTEMATH.
The tour kicks off on January 25th at Hard Rock Live Arena at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and will hit major arenas across the U.S. and Canada through mid-March. One highlight of the 33-city itinerary will be a special Valentine’s Day show at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Tickets go on sale this Saturday, November 17th.
“We’re all completely pumped about getting back together and heading out on the road after all this time, especially since we have a bunch of new songs to play for everyone,” said vocalist Rob Thomas. “And we’re thrilled to be joined by the brilliant Alanis Morissette and the fantastic New Orleans band MUTEMATH. It’s going to be a great show, and we can’t wait to get out there.”
“I can’t wait to share some new songs, connect with people around North America again, and join MATCHBOX TWENTY’s traveling circus,” shared Alanis Morissette. “So psyched!”
MATCHBOX TWENTY last toured in 2003, wrapping up their SRO global itinerary in December of that year. The tour, which earned acclaim from coast to coast and around the globe, was highlighted by sold-out shows at three of the world’s premier rock venues — New York’s Madison Square Garden, London’s Wembley Arena, and Los Angeles’ Staples Center.
