The Summer Set Announce "The Travelin' Show" Fall 2010 Tour

Straight off a thriving summer on the Vans Warped Tour, The Summer Set are excited to announce their first headlining tour this fall. "The Travelin' Show" fall tour will kick off at Emo's in Austin, TX on October 19th and hit venues nationwide, concluding the tour with two dates in their home state of Arizona on November 26th and 27th. Stereo Skyline, Mod Sun, and Austin Gibbs will join The Summer Set for "The Travelin' Show," with School Boy Humor and The Downtown Fiction on select dates.

"The Travelin' Show" is the perfect summation to an exciting year for the pop rock quintet. After Alternative Press named them one of the "100 Bands You Need to Know in 2010," they joined the sold out spring AP Tour which was followed by an entire run on the 2010 Vans Warped Tour in support of their album Love Like This. "We've made it this far! The Summer Set is finally doing our first headlining tour this fall and we couldn't be more excited," said vocalist Brian Dales. "This is our chance to get back to our roots and play the small clubs we haven't gotten to play in the past year. The most important thing about this tour is that we want to spend more time hanging out with you guys. Let's take this back to the beginning. Are you ready?"

The Summer Set also made an appearance at this year's Hoodwink Festival, where their set of Taylor Swift covers was recorded and released in a limited edition deluxe version of Love Like This which includes a free disc of the five Swift cover songs entitled Love Like Swift. The album is available exclusively at Wal-Mart for $10.00, and an acoustic cover video was featured on MTV Buzzworthy to preview the album. The video for "The Boys You Do (Get Back At You)," the second single off Love Like This, debuted this July while the band was on the Vans Warped Tour.

The Summer Set's edition of Alternative Press's AP Sessions debuts on September 6th on AltPress.com with a two song original performance and a bonus third song. The performance was filmed at world-renowned punk venue The Agora Ballroom in Cleveland, OH and produced by Alternative Press in association with Additive Agency and Lava Room Recording Studios.

The Summer Set was founded by the Gomez brothers, Stephen (bass) and John (guitar) and drummer Jess Bowen while the three were in school together. 2007 brought vocalist Brian Dales and guitarist Josh Montgomery,creating the lineup fans know and love today. After three successful EPs, the band signed to Razor & Tie and released their debut full-length album Love Like This in October 2009.
