ZERO PLATOON TOUR: ROCKY VOTOLATO, DAVE HAUSE, CHRIS FARREN

Thanks to the Kind Cause grant that we were awarded earlier this year, Zero Platoon will be hitting the road this summer. Stay tuned for another tour announcement coming soon, but for now we couldn't be more psyched to announce that we'll be on the road with Rocky Votolato, Dave Hause and Chris Farren on their U.S. Tour.

I've been a fan of Rocky Votolato ever since I heard "White Daisy Passing" on "The O.C." almost a decade ago. Hey, cut me some slack, I grew up in a small town and discovered a lot of my favorite bands from TV shows like that one. I became a fan of Dave Hause after seeing him (and Rocky) on the Revival Tour in Brooklyn two years ago. And I've been a fan of Chris Farren's band Fake Problems for years too!

Back in April, Rocky did an interview and performed a couple of acoustic songs for us when he passed through Brooklyn. His interview is one of the best we've ever had because he really opened up about suffering from depression, and he even talked about being suicidal at one point in his life. In his interview, he mentioned that music has saved his life several times. And that's exactly why Zero Platoon exists. I know that music can save lives because it has also saved mine on many occasions. That night, after the show, I mentioned ZP's summer tour plans and I told him that I really want to work with artists and bands that care about people. So when he and Dave Hause announced this tour, I couldn't think of anyone better to work with. 

Thanks to these guys for letting Zero Platoon be a part of this awesome lineup. Super psyched and can't wait to see what we can do this summer!
