This fall, two of the hardest touring bands in alternative rock – Yellowcard and New Found Glory – will be joining forces. “We have shared the stage with New Found Glory all over the world, but we’ve never had the chance to do a proper tour together in the States,” said Yellowcard. “After more than a decade of friendship, this tour is sure to be a highlight in both of our careers.” In celebration of this tour announcement, Yellowcard will premiere the video for “California”, taken from their latest album Lift A Sail.

Kicking off on October 8th in Scottsdale, AZ, both bands will be taking Tigers Jaw as support. The tour brings them East to NYC’s Best Buy Theater on October 24th, to Chicago’s Concord Music Hall on November 6th, LA’s The Wiltern on November 20th and wrapping up San Diego’s House of Blues on November 22nd, with plenty of stops in between. “We are all so excited to share this show with the fans. It’s going to be epic,” added the band. Tour dates are below. Special VIP packages are available, which include a limited edition 7 of New Found Glory covering Yellowcard’s “Illuminate” and Yellowcard performing New Found Glory’s “Ready and Willing” (only available as part of the VIP package), as well as a photo opportunity with both bands together, an exclusive poster and laminate.
