Jimmy Eat World just added a run of East Coast dates to their ‘Bleed American’ 25th anniversary tour, and the expanded itinerary makes an already essential summer run even harder to ignore. New stops include The Muse in Nantucket, Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater in Bridgeport, and Stone Pony Summer Stage in Asbury Park. Tickets for the new dates go on sale Friday, April 17th at 10 a.m. ET.
The full tour launches June 9th at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado and runs all the way through November, with dates across the US, Canada, UK, and Mexico. Every night features ‘Bleed American’ played in its entirety, the 2001 album that found its way into a generation of lives and never left. Lead vocalist Jim Adkins describes the intent clearly: “This tour is designed to be an elevated version of our show, a heightened experience with production that reflects 25 years of learning how to stretch artistically in the live environment.”
The guest list alone makes this one of the year’s most stacked tours. Rise Against, Sunny Day Real Estate, Thrice, Motion City Soundtrack, The Get Up Kids, PUP, Hot Mulligan, Minus the Bear, Sparta, Hey Mercedes, Girls Against Boys, Illuminati Hotties, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, Mom Jeans, and Jay Som all appear on select dates. That’s not a support lineup, that’s a festival bill attached to a headline tour.
‘Bleed American’ turns 25 this year, and Jimmy Eat World are treating the milestone with the weight it deserves. As the band put it when the tour was first announced: “If you were ever in the crowd singing along to these songs with us, this tour is for you.”
