    POSTMODERN JUKEBOX AND STRAIGHT NO CHASER ANNOUNCE 25-CITY SUMMER US TOUR LAUNCHING JULY 13 IN CHICAGO First Co-Headlining Tour Brings Together Vintage Pop Sensation PMJ’s Full-Band Extravaganza And A Cappella Superstars SNC’s Jaw-Dropping Vocal Artistry LOS ANGELES (Feb. 14, 2017) – Fans of retro pop sounds with a cheeky modern twist are in for the experience of a lifetime this summer as Postmodern Jukebox and Straight No Chaser join forces for a co-headlining tour of the United States. Produced exclusively by Live Nation, the 25-city jaunt kicks off in Chicago on July 13 and will include stops in Cleveland, Boston, Nashville and Los Angeles for the two classic-meets-contemporary sensations, both of whom mash up classic pop stylings and modern pop hits in their own unique fashions. Complete itinerary below. Presale for both fan clubs begin on Wednesday, February 15th at 10am local time through 10pm. More information including VIP Packages can be found at http://www.sncmusic.com/ and http://postmodernjukebox.com/. As the official credit card for the tour, Citi® / AAdvantage® cardmembers will have access to purchase presale tickets beginning Thursday, February 16th at 10am local time through Friday, February 17th at 10pm local time. For complete details, please visit citiprivatepass.com. General on sale begins February 18 at 10am local time at livenation.com. Both bands deliver contemporary pop songs with timeless flair - the stylistic diversity, real musical and vocal skill, and dedication to craft of a bygone era. Straight No Chaser shirk the blazers and khakis of campus a cappella groups for something far less strait-laced (or straight-faced), training their jaw-dropping vocal prowess and soulful harmonies on past and current hits.
