The Veronicas To Release Album 8/26 & Tour With Jonas Brothers
The Veronicas are gearing up to release their sophomore album, Hook Me Up, in the US on August 26th! The eye-popping video for “Untouched” — the first single from Hook Me Up —earned the super-hot duo a performance on MTV’s TRL, which is airing August 20th at 11amEST. Also, Lisa and Jess recently announced that they’re hitting the road with the Jonas Brothers for a select string of shows later this month (tour dates below).
Hook Me Up represents a stylistic leap from the girls’ 2006 debut The Secret Life Of… by swapping the latter’s pop-punk leanings for Hook Me Up’s dance friendly, beat-driven feel. The album features a host of top notch hitmakers, including Shelly Peiken (Christina Aguilera), Greg Wells (Mika), John Feldmann (The Used, Good Charlotte), Billy Steinberg (Madonna), and their Secret Life collaborator Toby Gad, who also wrote Fergie’s 2007 hit “Big Girls Don’t Cry.” Hook Me Up has already achieved double-platinum status in the girls’ native Australia.
Tour dates with the Jonas Brothers:
Aug 22- Cuyahoga Falls, OH
Aug 23- Columbus, OH
Aug 24- Chicago, IL
Aug 26- Pittsburgh, PA
Aug 27- Camden, NJ
Sept 2- University Park, PA
Sept 4- Tampa, FL
Sept 5- West Palm Beach, FL
