Milky Chance Tours Behind Sadnecessary

MILKY CHANCE ANNOUNCE 2015 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR

WIDESPREAD CRITICAL ACCLAIM ABOUNDS FOR GOLD-SELLING DUO

SADNECESSARY OUT NOW

“Infectiously catchy alt-folk single.” – People

“#1 album of the week.” – Spin

“Laid-back folk made propulsive by sparse and smart electronic touches, plus the occasional (and remarkably un-corny) reggae-ish upstroke.” – Rolling Stone

“Genre Bending” – Entertainment Weekly

“[‘Stolen Dance’] an electro-pop backbone and irresistible sing-along chorus.” – NYLON

“Slinky and sexy enough to dance to without sacrificing that much-needed sense of cooler than thou.” – BlackBook

Following the release of their unanimously acclaimed full-length debut album Sadnecessary [Lichtdicht/Republic Records], MILKY CHANCE are gearing up for their very first full-scale North American tour in 2015.

Fresh off selling out four shows in New York, Los Angeles, Toronto and San Francisco, the gold-selling German duo are excited to be hitting the road again in 2015. The two-month tour begins on March 20 at South Side Music Hall in Dallas, TX stopping at major markets across the U.S. before wrapping up on May 22 at Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, BC. Make sure to get your tickets early! Fan club pre-sale tickets go on sale today at 10am EST and general public tickets can be purchased starting Friday 10/24.

As soon as it was released, Sadnecessary climbed to #4 on iTunes Overall Top Albums chart and #1 on the Alternative Albums chart. Their smash “Stolen Dance” continues to make major waves at radio, sitting at #1 at Triple A for 9 consecutive weeks and #1 at Alternative for 6 weeks. Meanwhile the official music video for “Stolen Dance” has nearly 80 million views and climbing.

The boys perform on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! on ABC tomorrow. Don’t miss it!

Longtime friends Clemens Rehbein and Philipp Dausch came together during high school in Kassel, Germany and founded MILKY CHANCE shortly after. Initially, they released Sadnecessary independently in Europe through their own label Lichtdicht Records and saw major success, hitting #1 in France and going Top 10 in 9 countries, while “Stolen Dance” took off online.
