As Nothing More continues to amass critical praise for their most recent album, the three-time Grammy-nominated The Stories We Tell Ourselves, including the #1 track at Rock Radio, “Go To War,” the band announces their most personal and meaningful headlining concert tour yet. Of Mice and Men will Special Guest on all dates, with Badflower and Palisades supporting.* “The Truth Tour” kicks off February 21 in Phoenix with a 23-city trek planned for this spring (all dates below). General ticket on-sale starts this Friday, October 12 at 10AM (local).

“This is our biggest headline tour yet so we are very excited to have such a great lineup,” said Nothing More’s vocalist Jonny Hawkins. “We are all big fans of openers Badflower and Palisades, but especially Of Mice & Men, who we’ve always wanted to tour with.”

The Truth Tour is rooted in the concept that art and music and the spirit of rock’n’roll are pure forms of truth that can bring people together, spark new ideas, new ways of thinking and through that, trigger changes in ourselves and in our world.

“Concerts are perfect environments to stimulate the revelation of a truth, an ‘ah-HA!’ moment,” added Hawkins, “because we are all sharing the energy of the music and the moments of community and inspiration, moments that can affect a positive change. It’s not about any one political movement or cause, it’s about everybody searching for the truth in all things, and putting that new awareness into action.”

Nothing More is welcoming two exceptional organizations to be on hand at all dates on The Truth Tour to offer two diverse ways to help navigate towards truth: HeadCount, the non-partisan voter registration organization that will handle first-time and all voters’ registration needs, and To Write Love on Her Arms, the non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and options for people struggling with depression and addiction. $1 from the purchase of every ticket will be donated to To Write Love On Her Arms. www.twloha.com

“Over the years, through thoughtful songwriting and wearing TWLOHA gear on tour, Nothing More has consistently sought ways to include their fans in a search for Truth,” said TWLOHA’S Chad Moses. “We’ve seen firsthand how they empower their fans to embrace things that we believe to be true: that stigma surrounding mental health deserves to be challenged, that your story deserves an audience, and that together we can embody a defiant sense of Hope. We look forward to standing alongside Nothing More on this journey toward Truth.”

“This is an exciting partnership for HeadCount, and we’re thrilled to start our 2019 touring season with Nothing More. The tour reflects HeadCount’s driving ethos that your vote is your Truth. We appreciate how Nothing More empowers and challenges their fanbase to become more engaged in the democratic process — and the band leads by example with their own civic participation. We’re looking forward to registering and educating voters with Nothing More and shedding light on just how easy it is to make your voice heard.” – Andy Bernstein, Executive Director, HeadCount.org
