Goo Goo Dolls will hit the road this summer for their third headline run since the release of their latest album Boxes.
The Long Way Home tour with special guest Phillip Phillips kicks off July 14th at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA and will run through mid-September, culminating at the Greek Theatre, Los Angeles, CA, September 13, 2017.
Goo Goo Dolls will release a new EP entitled You Should Be Happy on May 12 via Warner Bros. Records.
Goo Goo Dolls - featuring singer and guitarist John Rzeznik and bassist and singer Robby Takac - have been on the road consistently since the release of their 11th studio album, Boxes, lauded by the likes of People, Huffington Post, and Metro who call the album a "step forward in the band's extensive repertoire." Boxes features hit "So Alive," which the Goo Goo Dolls have performed everywhere from The Today Show and The Talk to Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Conan.
The multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated Goo Goo Dolls are one of the most globally respected and influential forces in popular music, selling more than 12 million albums since 1986. They have scored 14 Top 10 radio hits (more than any other artist in the history of the Hot AC format), including "Name," "Slide," and "Iris," the latter spending nearly 12 straight months on the Billboard charts and holding the No.
1 position for 17 consecutive weeks.
The band has toured the globe countless times, performed in front of millions of fans, received numerous awards (including four Grammy nominations), and recorded and released eleven studio albums.
Rzeznik has also been honored with the Songwriters Hall of Fame Hal David Starlight Award.
