Fresh off of their summer-long stint on the Van Warped Tour, Meg & Dia will hit the road for an extensive fall tour with Dashboard Confessional and Never Shout Never. Meg & Dia will tour the East Coast and Midwest with Warner Bros. Records’ label-mates Never Shout Never beginning in October, then continue on with Never Shout Never and New Found Glory as they support Dashboard Confessional on a U.S. tour that begins November 8th.

Meg & Dia are on the road supporting their new album, Here, here and here, which was released April 21st on Warner Bros. Records. Meg & Dia will perform songs from the new album, including their current single “Black Wedding,” as well as favorites from their debut album Something Real, including the singles “Monster” and “Roses.”

A New York Times “Critic’s Choice” pick, Here, here and here was recorded with producer Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, All American Rejects) in Los Angeles. Over the course of its 13 brand-new studio tracks (written entirely by sisters Meg and Dia Frampton), the album chronicles the past few years in the life of this young, hardworking band, which is made up of Meg (guitar, vocals), Dia (lead vocal), Nick Price (drums), Carlo Gimenez (guitar), and Jonathan Snyder (bass). Here, here and here showcases Meg & Dia’s distinctive brand of pop-rock by incorporating new instrument arrangements with their already intense signature style lyrics.

Here’s what the critics are saying:

“It’s Dia’s voice that holds it together — a classic, clear belt that does sweet as well as it does pissed off, and excels at the pop-punk confessional form.“ — Entertainment Weekly

“Far be it from us to throw all the young, cute, girl-power rockers into the same boat, but we’ll say this: Meg and Dia are punchier than Avril, less contrived than Katy, and rock harder than Kelly.” — Metromix

“For some people, Here, Here and Here will move them with its lyrical poetry. Others will enjoy the sounds. But, most importantly, everyone will enjoy the fact that these two young ladies offer us more than just a couple of pretty faces.” — Blogcritics.org
