The extensive run kicks off this fall and stretches into the new year with support from Four Year Strong, We The Kings and Youth Fountain.
Punk infuenced, post-hardcore vets Story of the Year have confirmed plans to mark the 20th anniversary of their celebrated debut, Page Avenue, with a comprehensive tour set to begin this fall. The run will begin late October and extend into the new year and will feature support from Four Year Strong, We The Kings and Youth Fountain on select dates.
On each night of the extensive tour, Story of the Year will perform Page Avenue in full, along with a cache of fan favorites from their accomplished career.
“Page Avenue is such a special album in so many ways,” explained vocalist Dan Marsala. “It has grown to be the definitive SOTY album. An album that stills resonates with everyone today the way it did 20 years ago. An album that built an amazing career for a bunch of friends from St. Louis. When we were writing Page Avenue, we were just kids making music that we loved. We had no idea that 20 years later these songs would still mean so much to us and to millions of other people all around the world.”
Guitarist Ryan Phillips added, “Page Avenue was the soundtrack to so many people’s lives. We can’t think of a better way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this pivotal record by getting out there and performing it for all of our incredible fans.”
Page Avenue boast the distinction of being one of the first of its kind to sell a million copies. Propelled by the enduring strength of anthems like, “Until The Day I Die,” “Anthem Of Our Dying Day” and “Sidewalks,” the album was a fixture on the Billboard charts. Page Avenue reached certified Gold in 2004 and ultimately Platinum in 2021, making it one of the first post-hardcore albums to hit such a significant benchmark.
