X106.5’s BBQ featuring Jimmy Eat World and Taking Back Sunday with Blue October and Flora Cash

Jimmy Eat World has released nine studio albums and have played sold out shows and festivals all over the world.  The band will be hitting the road this summer for a co-headline tour with Third Eye Blind and special guest Ra Ra Riot.  The 35-city Summer Gods Tour, will kick off June 14 at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, with dates in Chicago, Atlanta, Houston and more, before wrapping August 3 in Irvine, CA at FivePoint Amphitheatre.  Just last year, the band released two additional tracks “Love Never” and “half heart.”  Jimmy Eat World consists of Jim Adkins, Zach Lind, Tom Linton and Rob Burch.

If you can’t believe that Taking Back Sunday have been around for 20 years, you’re not alone, because they can’t either. Although the pride of Long Island have had a handful of member changes over the years, the current lineup of the band — vocalist Adam Lazzara, guitarist John Nolan, drummer Mark O’Connell and bassist Shaun Cooper — have all been there since the beginning. From the band’s landmark 2002 debut Tell All Your Friends to their most recent full-length, 2016’s Tidal Wave, Taking Back Sunday have evolved from a key player in the early 2000s emo scene to a genre-defying rock band who have three gold albums without ever ceasing to push the limitations of their sound. This fact is evidenced on Twenty, a 21-song collection released in January 2019 via Craft Recordings that spans all seven of their full-lengths and solidifies them as an act with a catalog that will undoubtedly outlive them.
