Australia’s very own 5 SECONDS OF SUMMER (5SOS) have announced they’ll be headed home to Sydney and Melbourne to perform two intimate Australian shows on their upcoming world tour 5SOS3, coinciding with the release of their brand new single ‘Want You Back’.
‘Want You Back’ is the band’s first new single in nearly two years. After 18 months on the road in support of their No.1 sophomore album “Sounds Good Feels Good”, the band has spent the last year living, writing and recording their new album in Los Angeles, set for release later this year.
5SOS told fans, “Finally… It’s been 3 years since our last album and we are so ready to share new music with the world. After spending the last 5 years on the road since the age of 16, it was important we took time to reflect as individuals and now we’re coming back stronger and more unified than ever. These songs mean the world to us and we have held nothing back in writing and recording this album. We’ve been rehearsing a lot of the new songs live and can’t wait to get back out on tour to connect with our incredible fans.”
Hailed as the “biggest new rock act in the world” by Rolling Stone, 5SOS is the only band in history to see its first two full-length studio albums enter the Billboard 200 at No.1. Their self-titled debut album has sold more than three million units worldwide and their sophomore release “Sounds Good Feels Good” won the group two ARIA awards for “Best Australian Live Act” and “Song of the Year” in 2015.
Australian fans will be among the first to get up close and personal with the band – this one’s not to be missed with tickets expected to sell fast!
5 Seconds Of Summer perform Tuesday May 29 at 170 Russell in Melbourne. Tickets go on sale at 1PM, Friday March 2. For complete tour and ticketing details, visit: livenation.com.au.
