The new Plain White Ts single Hey There Delilah is currently a Top 3 smash in the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in America and is lifted from their stunning new album Every Second Counts, which is riding high in the Billboard Top 40 album chart, achieving gold status and selling over 100,000 copies to date.
The band are currently on a 22 date tour of the US and are planning to tour the UK in August and September starting with performances at the Reading and Leeds festival.
Later this year they will be special guests on the Fall Out Boy US tour which begins in October. Hey There Delilah has already been added to the Virgin Radio playlist and remains the number one downloaded track on iTunes US for July. Huge Beatles fans, the band recorded a special version of Hey There Delilah at the world famous Abbey Road recording studios when they had a day off on a recent visit to London and this appears as a B-side on the CD and 7 Shaped Vinyl single formats.The Plain White Ts album Every Second Counts will be released on September 10th on the Hollywood Records label (marketed and distributed by Angel Music Group). For almost a decade, the Plain White Ts have been playing that perfect pop-punk punch to packed audiences in the USA. Their journey, which began in a small suburban basement playing covers, has taken the band on three US Warped Tours and landed them opening slots for bands like Jimmy Eat World and Panic! At the Disco.
Call it hard work or call it destiny, one thing's for sure the Plain White Ts were put on this earth to entertain.
