YUNGBLUD Announces The Underrated Youth North American Spring Tour

YUNGBLUD announced the underrated youth North American spring tour. In 2019, the U.K. artist sold out all of his dates in the U.S., Europe and the U.K. – totalling more than 150 shows. He’ll kick off the 2020 headline run on April 21 at Ace of Spades in Sacramento, CA – after performing both weekends at Coachella. The tour will take him up the West Coast to Canada, throughout the Midwest, and down the Eastern seaboard before wrapping up on May 15 at the Georgia Theatre in Athens, GA. See below for itinerary.

The artist pre-sale via Seated starts today January 22, at 10:00 AM local time. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, January 24, at 10:00 AM local time. Visit his official website for more details.

The 22-year-old, who earned third place in the BBC’s Sound of 2020 poll, is known for his high energy, impassioned performances. Rolling Stone hailed YUNGBLUD as a “Pop-Punk Rebel on a Mission” in this feature, which followed his sold-out Webster Hall show in New York last fall. Clash Magazine noted, “YUNGBLUD has this magnetic quality. It’s there when he performs live, this addictive nature that pulls fans closer and closer, demolishing the line between artist and crowd.” That solidarity served as a major touchstone for his new EP, the underrated youth (Locomotion / Geffen Records), which placed in the top 10 of the UK Official Albums chart. Paper Magazine praised him as “a Community-Driven Rock Star” in this feature.

Cumulative global streams of YUNGBLUD’s songs have surpassed 860 million. The singles “I Think I’m Ok” and YUNGBLUD & Halsey feat. Travis Barker – 11 Minutes have both been certified Gold by the RIAA. Combined streams of “Tongue Tied,” his 2019 collaboration with Marshmello and Blackbear, now exceed 60 million.

We no longer accept unpaid PR agency work. We believe the creative arts have value, and this includes writing. As always, we will write about artists who contact us - or who we contact - for free - but we can no longer work free of charge for PR agencies. We work hard, we put in a lot of hours writing, and we ask that you respect that. Contact us for our very reasonable rates.
