Singer and guitarist John Rzeznik enlisted some of his favorite songwriters and producers to collaborate with, including Gregg Wattenberg (with whom Rzeznik wrote four songs on the Goos’ 2013 album Magnetic), Wattenberg’s production partner Derek Fuhrmann, and Drew Pearson (who has worked with Phillip Phillips and OneRepublic)

Also on the bill as direct support are Collective Soul and Tribe Society. The tour kicks off in Portland, OR, on July 8thand crisscrosses North America through September 16th.
