Spring/Summer Tour Set
Coachella and Lollapalooza Confirmed
"Rock & Roll Queen" Goes Platinum!
Modern punk rock sensations, THE SUBWAYS are
coming back for more. Their first sold-out nationwide tour of the U.S. has
cemented a fervent fan-base of loyalists demanding more. The band has
responded in kind: "We love coming to America. We've had an amazing time
and our fans have been so enthusiastic," said vocalist/guitarist Billy Lunn
(21). Bassist/vocalist Charlotte Cooper (20) adds, "We weren't quite sure
what our first American experience would be like but the shows have been so
cool and the audiences have been really into it." Drummer Josh Morgan
(19) agrees: "Really looking forward to coming back, might even play some
new songs."

The new American tour will kick-off with a performance at the annual
Coachella Valley Arts & Music Festival in Indio, CA. and head through the
mid-west which includes at stop at this year's Lollapalooza Festival in
Chicago. The bill will also feature label-mates The Flaming Lips and Built
To Spill. The tour then heads east with further dates to be confirmed
shortly. Confirmed dates will be listed below.
Meanwhile, the band's album debut "YOUNG FOR ETERNITY" continues to grab
headlines: "THE SUBWAYS debut is packed with kind of raw energy and brash
attitude that comes with youth...it hits you like an express train." --
People Magazine
"The most compelling debut of the year." -- Synthesis Magazine
"THE SUBWAYS threaten the Arctic Monkeys' position as the hottest band out
of the UK." -- Rolling Stone
Fans of the band have been incredibly active online as digital sales of the
first single, "Rock & Roll Queen," have now exceeded 200,000 downloads
since November resulting in Platinum certification from the RIAA.
