Indie record stores will host events later this month
Grammy Award-winning duo Twenty One Pilots have partnered with independent record stores and various venues to host global listening parties for their highly anticipated forthcoming album Clancy. The events, which will take place May 18th through May 23rd, will see over 200 stores globally hosting fans to listen to Clancy in its entirety up to a full week before its release date. Fans in attendance at each listening event will receive a limited edition Twenty One Pilots wristband and poster on a first come first served basis, with participating stores launching a special pre-order for a CD version featuring alternate artwork and an extended 20-page booklet, as well as a pre-order for the Clancy vinyl where fans will receive an exclusive LP sleeve upon the album’s release on May 24th via Fueled By Ramen.
Last week, Twenty One Pilots surprised fans in New York City with an ultra-intimate “evening with” performance at Bowery Ballroom. They’ll follow up this week with two more surprise sold-out underplays at Berlin’s Metropol on May 7th and London’s Electric Ballroom on May 9th. Twenty One Pilots also recently shared “Backslide,” the third new song to be released from Clancy, which arrived with an official music video directed by the band’s own Josh Dun.
Twenty One Pilots will celebrate the release of Clancy with The Clancy World Tour, their biggest headline tour ever, kicking off with a two-night stand on August 15th and 16th at Denver’s Ball Arena. Produced by Live Nation, the tour will traverse North America through the fall followed by dates in New Zealand, Australia, Europe, and the UK.
