Following the release of their critically acclaimed second album,'Voices' (via Epitaph), Poughkeepsie's Matchbook Romance have confirmed a UK tour alongside All American Rejects for September 2006.
This year has already been a whirlwind for the 4 piece - Andrew Jordan - vocals, guitar, Ryan DePaulo - guitar, Ryan Kienle - bass, Aaron Stern - drums- and have surpassed all their expectations. First off they entered the US Billboard Charts above the likes of Panic! At the Disco, In Flames, Cat Power and Bullet For My Valentine, received heavy rotation on MTV as THE band to watch with their single 'Monsters' and been on an (almost) neverending tour (alongside Yellowcard and as headliners on the Take Action Tour) amassing loyal converts wherever they go.
In addition to their shows with All American Rejects - their first UK shows here in over 2 years - the band will play one headline show in Newport on 25th September.
Details of a brand new single, 'Surrender' will be announced shortly.
