A rising hit at alternative radio, “Rebel Girl” is the band’s first new track in three years and blanketing airwaves nationwide, including KROQ in Los Angeles, WKQX in Chicago, WRFF in Philadelphia, WWDC in Washington, KDKB in Phoenix, 91X in San Diego and many more. The band has now released a video for the track that was directed by Matt Thompson.
ANGELS & AIRWAVES (vocalist/guitarist Tom DeLonge, guitarist David Kennedy and drummer Ilan Rubin, joined by touring bassist Matt Rubano) will perform “Rebel Girl” and a setlist of fan favorites on their sold-out North American headlining tour, which kicks off August 28th in San Diego, CA. That show will take place almost seven years to the day of their last performance, which was September 2, 2012 in Bologna, Italy.
DeLonge, a founding member of seminal pop punk band Blink-182, formed Angels & Airwaves in 2005. (Delonge also formed the band Box Car Racer with Blink 182 bandmate Travis Barker. They were active from 2001-2003) A year later came debut album ‘We Don’t Need To Whisper,’ which hit No. 4 on The Billboard 200 and featured Top 5 modern rock hit “The Adventure.” 2007’s ‘I-Empire’ followed, hitting No. 9 on The Billboard 200 and featured rock radio hit “Everything’s Magic.” In 2010, AVA released ‘Love’ and a year later, ‘Love: Part Two’ accompanied by a critically acclaimed film, Love, which was shown in 460 theaters nationwide during a one-night film screening and live-streamed concert event titled Love Live. The band’s last full-length album was 2014’s ‘The Dream Walker,’ which hit No. 1 on iTunes and No. 5 on Billboard’s Top Alternative Albums chart. A multimedia project, the album was accompanied by a graphic novel, comic books and a Blade Runner-meets Harry Potter short film, which won Best Animation at the Toronto International Short Film Festival.
