Regarding the upcoming concerts Taylor Hanson said, "It's great to be a part of this year's Bamboozle festival, and especially on the heels of a new record we wanted to bring together a live music event that was really unique, something that allows us and our fans to share the music we've created over more than a decade like never before." Added Isaac, "We could not think of a better way to span the old and the new music than in this live setting."
Concert tickets go on sale today Dec 15th, in conjunction with The Bamboozle Festival, with limited ticket packages made available exclusively through the bands official site Hanson.net.
The announcement of these special events follows the digital release of the band's new EP, Stand Up Stand Up, which was released physically on the band's recent "Use Your Sole" tour with HelloGoodbye. The EP, now available via all digital outlets, features four brand new acoustic songs and the new full album track "World's On Fire," previewing the band's Spring 2010 album.
Zac Hanson says, "The EP is about engaging fans of the band early, with a first look at some of the new songs, as well as bridging the gap between the last album, The Walk and the coming record."
