News: OK Go Announces 2015 Tour In Support Of New Album ‘Hungry Ghosts’
2 min read
(US) To celebrate the release of its new album, Hungry Ghosts (Paracadute/BMG), OK Go devised a myriad of interactive activities – from dedicated interactive websites for the first two videos, “I Won’t Let You Down” and “The Writing’s On The Wall,” to a remix contest with Blend to forays on new social media platforms. Now the GRAMMY-winning band is inviting fans to come join the party in person. OK Go is known for its highly interactive live show and the group’s 2015 spring theatre tour promises plenty of surprises. Tickets are on sale now for the outing, which will kick off on March 21 at The Warfield in San Francisco, include a show at New York City’s Terminal 5 on April 11 and wrap up at The Wiltern in Los Angeles on May 2.
In the meantime, fans can catch OK Go performing on CBS’ “Late Show with David Letterman” tonight, November 11. The band recently premiered the official video for “I Won’t Let You Down,” the second single from Hungry Ghosts, during a visit to NBC’s “TODAY.” By the following day, the single and Hungry Ghosts had jumped to No. 1 on iTunes Alternative Singles and Alternative Albums charts in Japan, where the video was shot.
The clip – directed by OK Go’s Damian Kulash and Kazuaki Seki, with creative direction by Morihiro Harano (of Mori, Inc.) – racked up 10 million views in its first week of release. It has been added by VH1, Fuse, MTV Hits (where it was “Hit of the Week” last week) and AXS TV and can be viewed HERE at the newly launched “I Won’t Let You Down” interactive website.
