The Ready Set to tour

Alternative-pop solo artist The Ready Set will hit the road this fall on a tour with Hey Monday and Cartel. Also on the lineup for the tour are This Century and We Are In The Crowd. The nationwide tour kicks off in St. Petersburg, FL on October 20th and runs through November 27th in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. “Love Like Woe,” the first single from The Ready Set’s debut album I’m Alive I’m Dreaming, is currently breaking at pop radio across the country and is steadily climbing on the Mainstream Top 40 airplay chart, where it is currently #32.

The Ready Set is comprised of 20 year-old Indiana-born drummer, singer, songwriter and keyboardist Jordan Witzigreuter, who creates infectious, danceable pop designed for fun. The Ready Set’s debut album I’m Alive, I’m Dreaming is the first release from the joint venture between Sire Records and Pete Wentz’s Decaydance Records. The album is available everywhere.

“Love Like Woe,” the JR Rotem-produced first single off I’m Alive, I’m Dreaming, is currently climbing the sales and radio charts. The track has been a mainstay on the iTunes pop chart (currently #22) and sales have increased each week for the past 15 weeks, highlighted by over 24,000 units this week alone. The video for the song has already received almost 3 million combined views, with The Ready Set’s “SETisodes” web series not far behind cracking one million views. All can be seen here:

Having toured steadily for the past year, The Ready Set has already developed a fiercely passionate and loyal fan-base. The self-described shy and reserved Witzigreuter transforms when taking the stage, with an in-your-face, frenetic live set. "Our shows are a party… All I care about is having fun,” says Jordan. The Ready Set just wrapped the MTV VMA Tour supporting Never Shout Never, and also recently performed live on MTV during the finale of Follow Me: The Search For The First MTV TJ.
