Emo rock legends, Hawthorne Heights have kept busy during this quarantine – from new merch, emo night bingo to their first set of dive-in concerts, Hawthorne Heights have done everything in their power to make the fans happy while also providing an income to themselves and their team. Now Hawthorne Heights have announced their Stay Home with Hawthorne Heights – a live, intimate, and virtual tour with opener Mark Rose.
It’s no secret that when the pandemic hit, the music industry came to a screeching halt. While the bigger artists and world renown venues had a better chance at survival – independent venues, DIY artists and promotors were left gasping for air. This new way of virtual touring allows Hawthorne Heights to partner up with some of their favorite venues and promotors in an effort to support each other during these tough times. Each night Hawthorne Heights will take over your living room, performing two unique shows per night in different cities around the United States. This tour highlights the DIY ways of Hawthorne Heights and their genuine nature that have made them one of the most well-respected rock bands in the scene.
Tickets for each show are only $10 and can be found linked below. For those diehard fans though, they will have the chance to pick up a VIP bundle for the chance to be featured in the show! If you’re worried that you won’t be able to make the date or time of you show – don’t – your ticket purchase allows you access to the show to enjoy 15 days from its live date.
Hawthorne Heights took to their Facebook to reveal their official statement and excitement on this new way of touring:
“We miss the stage as much as you miss the power of live music. The way it connects our hearts cannot be stopped. We miss our favorite cities, venues, and fans. STAY HOME is a celebration of all those things. We know it’s weird, we know it’s different, but check this out… Grab your favorite drink, put on your favorite band shirt, and watch an EMO Rock N Roll show from wherever you want. Join us as we play games, tell stories, and of course, perform our songs. Each show will be broadcasted live with professional sound and visual, from us to you. We have teamed up with some great venues in the corresponding cities to help present the shows, but each show is streamed to you at home or wherever you would like to watch. Thank you in advance for keeping our band afloat, and helping us raise money for some of our favorite venues and promoters. Don’t forget to pick up an interactive VIP where you can be featured on the show.”
This incredible new-age virtual tour kicks off on September 22 in Roswell, NM at 8pm at The Liberty Theatre. Tickets and interactive VIP bundles can be purchased below – as well as all the dates. To amp you up for this stellar tour, we’ve of course created our dream Hawthorne Heights setlist.
