RETURNING TO AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND TO CELEBRATE 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF 'FUTURES'

Frontier Touring are proud to be bringing Jimmy Eat World back to Australia and New Zealand this November in celebration of the ten year anniversary of their iconic album Futures' release.

After the band's appearance Down Under earlier this year for a run of very successful festival sets, fans have been hanging for more.

The Australian and New Zealand leg of the tour immediately follows a massive run of US dates in commemoration of the pivotal album. The Futures 10 Year Anniversary Tour will kick off in Auckland before crossing the ditch to visit all Australian capital cities and sees the band performing their pivotal album from front to back.

Jim Adkins, Rick Burch, Zach Lind and Tom Linton from Mesa, Arizona formed Jimmy Eat World in 1994 and quickly cemented their position as alternative rock leaders of their generation.

Futures, the band's fifth studio album, was released on 19 October 2004 and features some of the band's most iconic tracks including 'Pain' (click here to watch), which has achieved Gold status in the US and became their second song to land the #1 spot on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks Chart.

The album peaked at #27 on the ARIA Albums Chart in Australia and #6 on the Billboard 200, proving the band were still delivering the goods in album number five.

One of Jimmy Eat World's deepest and more emotive albums, Futures demonstrates the band's growth and maturity and their crafted abilities in invoking heavy themes in even the catchiest of tunes such as 'Work' (click here to watch).  In contrast, tracks like '23' (click here to watch a live performance), a perfectly building track with seamless production, highlight the raw and echoing lyrics by Adkins, making it a perfect closing track to Futures.
