The band made their Grand Ole Opry debut in Nashville earlier this month, delivering the world premiere of “Lonely Cowboy” from the historic circle, after a sold-out show at the highly revered Ryman Auditorium, performing tracks from their latest release Surface Sounds, including Triple A Top 6 hit “Break My Baby,” the atmospheric “Backbone,” and the groovy “Hey Gringo,” as well as hits from 2016’s breakthrough major label debut A/B: the two-time RIAA Platinum-certified chart-topper “Way Down We Go,” fan-favorites “Automobile” and “Hot Blood,” before closing out their set with the GRAMMY-nominated rocker “No Good.”
During their time off the road, KALEO filmed a series of live performance videos, showcasing the spectacular landscapes of their native Iceland, performing from an ice cave in “Backbone (Live at Breiðarmerkurjökull),” the country’s recent volcanic eruption in “Skinny (Live from Fagradalsfjall Volcanic Eruption),” and Triple A Top 6 single “Break My Baby (Live from ÞRÍDRANGAR),” recorded and filmed at the illustrious ÞRÍDRANGAR lighthouse, one of the most isolated places on earth, located atop a remote rock formation in the North Atlantic Ocean. The Fight Or Flight Tour continues tonight in Boston, Mass. at House of Blues. Watch a tour recap of their shows in Texas, California and the Pacific Northwest, where The Spokesman-Review praised of their Spokane date at The Knitting Factory, “Built largely around the musical prowess of powerhouse vocalist JJ Julius Son, the indie rock outfit displayed an impressive array of influence and emotional awareness, with tracks ranging from Hozier-esque ballads to soulful psychedelic explosions reminiscent of Pink Floyd.”
About KALEO
Since the release of their RIAA Gold-certified breakthrough album, 2016’s A/B, Icelandic rock band KALEO—led by front man/songwriter JJ Julius Son—has taken their music around the world. The album spawned three hit singles – the GRAMMY-nominated “No Good,” the Gold-selling “All The Pretty Girls” and the chart-topping, two-time Platinum-certified “Way Down We Go” which was used in over two dozen television shows from “Grey’s Anatomy” to “Riverdale,” leading the No. 1 single to top The Hollywood Reporter’s Top TV Songs chart. After amassing over 1 Billion global streams, 39 international certifications, and countless sold-out headline shows spanning from London to Moscow, KALEO has proven to be a worldwide phenomenon. Known for their electrifying live performances, KALEO completely sold out their first U.S. headline tour and was a standout at Coachella, Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo and were hand-picked to open stadium dates for the Rolling Stones. Since KALEO wrapped a nearly non-stop 3-year touring schedule in support of A/B in October 2018, Julius Son went into the studio to work on the highly anticipated follow-up, Surface Sounds on Elektra/Atlantic, available everywhere now. KALEO’s Fight or Flight Tour 2022 launches Feb. 22 in Seattle, Wash., featuring 60+ dates across North America, including a stop at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colo. on May 16, where the show will be available via livestream on Veeps.
