UNCASVILLE, CT (September 23, 2016) – Panic! At The Disco yesterday announced that they will embark on the Death Of A Bachelor Tour, a headline U.S. arena run in celebration of the success of their gold-certified fifth studio album Death Of A Bachelor, supported by MisterWives and special guests Saint Motel. The 35-city tour kicks off February 24th in Connecticut at Mohegan Sun Arena. The show begins at 7:00pm.

Earlier this summer, the Recording Industry Association of America honored Panic! At The Disco with the gold certification of their album Death Of A Bachelor for exceeding 500,000 units sold. Death Of A Bachelor was one of only eleven albums released in 2016 to receive an RIAA certification this year, and the only alternative genre release to reach this milestone. The album also spawned RIAA certified gold singles “Hallelujah” and “Victorious.”
The New York Times praised the album saying, “[it] evokes both the flamboyant swagger of Queen and the mechanized gleam of Daft Punk.” P!ATD’s summer co-headline tour with Weezer played to more than half a million fans and was a critical success with media praising their live show as “explosive, anthemic” (Pollstar) and “action-packed minutes of skyscraping vocals and inventive visuals” (Indianapolis Star) while calling Urie’s showmanship “[a]Freddie Mercury-channeling vision of modern rock ‘n’ roll excess” (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel).
Produced by Jake Sinclair, Death Of A Bachelor marks the first release from Panic! At The Disco in nearly two years, following 2013’s acclaimed Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die!. Aside from debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200 Chart, the album has produced five top 15-charting hits on the “Hot Rock Songs” chart with “Hallelujah,” “Emperor’s New Clothes,” “LA Devotee,” current single “Don’t Threaten Me With A Good Time,” and the album’s energetic, lead single “Victorious” charting Top 10 at Alternative.
Mohegan Sun Arena is now ranked consistently among the top venues in the world according to Billboard Magazine, Pollstar and Venues Today. It has won “Casino of The Year” at the Country Music Awards in 2008 & 2010 and in 2013, was voted “Arena Of The Year” at the G2E Global Gaming Conference in Las Vegas. Mohegan Sun Arena was also ranked among the top 10 arena venues in the nation for 2014, regardless of size. In 2015, Mohegan Sun took home the IEBA award for “Casino of the Year.” Mohegan Sun also won “Casino of the Year” in 2 categories at the 2013 & 2016 Academy of Country Music Awards.

Reviews of the Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die Tour have been effusive:
“Urie danced his way across the stage during each song as he mirrored the crowd’s fervent energy, which was at full throttle the entire night…He isn’t afraid to hit those high falsetto notes to demonstrate his brilliant vocal range, show off some dance moves, or run around bare-chested performing acrobatics off the stage equipment.” —The Miami New Times
“Lead singer Brendon Urie’s voice is powerful and excellent…the energy level last night started high and never waned.” –Consequence of Sound
“The Marquee was transformed into a rock church during ‘This Is Gospel,’ as stained-glass images lit the stage. The audience faithfully followed Urie, who commanded the room as if it were his church.” —The Phoenix New Times
Panic! will also stage a takeover of the TV airwaves performing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on Wednesday, March 5th.
The group’s fourth studio album Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 Chart in October. “This Is Gospel,” the second single from the album has over 10 million YouTube views, is currently impacting radio and follows “Miss Jackson” which hit Top 10 at Alternative Radio.
