Emblem3 announced last week that they will join Selena Gomez’s worldwide “Stars Dance” tour as the opening act of the tour’s 41 North American dates.
The dates, which will mark Emblem3’s first extensive North American tour, kick off Aug. 14 in Vancouver, BC and continue through cities across the U.S. including Boston, Philadelphia, Houston, Los Angeles and Chicago before wrapping in St. Louis on Nov. 27. Tickets for all dates are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com.
The band’s current single “Chloe (You’re The One I Want)” debuted in April and is available digitally at http://smarturl.it/e3chloe. The summer jam, described by The Hollywood Reporter as “a mix of sugary pop confection and a Sublime-inspired beach vibe,” was co-written by Emblem3 and Savan Kotecha, Kool Kojak and Peter Svensson. Emblem3 celebrated the single’s release with the fan driven “Goin’ Back 2 Cali” roadtrip, a free tour where the band visited 9 cities voted on by fans. That tour followed a string of shows throughout February and March that sold out in under a minute, and saw Emblem3 adding multiple tour dates to their itinerary due to overwhelming demand from fans.
Emblem3 – Brothers Wesley and Keaton Stromberg and lifelong friend Drew Chadwick – are currently in the studio at work on their debut album, which is being executive produced by award winning songwriter and producer Savan Kotecha (Maroon 5, Usher, One Direction). The album will be the first release on “Mr Kanani,” Savan Kotecha’s imprint on Syco Music released through Columbia Records in Summer 2013.
