Rooney to tour in support of upcoming album

Los Angeles pop-rock quintet Rooney are thrilled to announce a North American headlining tour in support of their new album EUREKA, which will be released June 8th on California Dreamin' Records (through Warner Music Group's Independent Label Group.) Following their headlining run, Rooney will spend the rest of the summer on tour with Hanson. Presale begins today, Thursday April 29th at www.rooneytix.com. See below for a full list of dates and the different kind of available ticket packages.

In the yet to be released video for "I Can't Get Enough," Rooney's first single off of Eureka, the band heads to the roller rink to show off their moves. The behind-the-scenes of the video is currently being featured on MTV.com and has lead singer Robert Schwartzman discussing the unique sound of the song and concept of the video. "I Can't Get Enough" is available for free when you preorder the album.

To get fans excited, Rooney is also offering the track "I Don't Wanna Lose You" as a free download here.

EUREKA is the follow-up to Rooney's two critically acclaimed albums - ROONEY and CALLING THE WORLD - and sees the band showcasing their most inventive and original material to date. Produced and crafted entirely by the band, EUREKA not only succeeds with 12 impressive and infectious tracks, but spotlights the band's gift to craft intelligent and stimulating rock songs that have continually captivated fans and critics with what Rolling Stone, Details, Entertainment Weekly, Alternative Press, Nylon, The New York Times and Spin Magazine hail as "real power-pop gems."

Developed through years of non-stop touring with artists like Kings of Leon, Weezer, The Strokes, Travis, Polyphonic Spree and Granddaddy, and two highly praised records, Rooney's irresistible songs has impacted modern rock & alternative radio stations and infiltrated video outlets such as MTV, VH1, Fuse and MTV2. Along the way, Rooney has built a fiercely loyal fan base and performed on THE OC, The Today Show, The Late Show with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Late Night With Conan O'Brien.
