    MXPX ANNOUNCE "20TH ANNIVERSARY SHOWS" IN SUPPORT OF THEIR NINTH STUDIO ALBUM, "PLANS WITHIN PLANS"

    New Album Available Digitally And At Most Music Retail Stores

    Los Angeles, CA, March 28, 2012 – Only days away from releasing their ninth studio album, Bremerton, WA, punk rock trio MXPX announce four commemorative "20th Anniversary Shows." With the official anniversary falling on July 6, the band will play select dates this spring and summer to celebrate their new album, PLANS WITHIN PLANS, and the legacy they've built over the years.

    Their first stop begins in their home away from home, Seattle, WA, on Saturday, May 26, at El Corazon, with Amber Pacific and guests, followed by two Southern California House of Blues showcases. MXPX will join forces with friends Set Your Goals, Mest and Rufio for back-to-back performances at both The House of Blues Anaheim on Friday, June 29, and West Hollywood on Saturday, June 30. Pre-sale tickets are available starting Thursday, March 29, at 10 a.m., exclusively through LiveNation (www.livenation.com). Public sale begins Saturday, March 31.

    Nearly five years since the release of their last album, MXPX is ready to continue their success with the release of PLANS WITHIN PLANS in the U.S. and Canada on April 3 through MRI/Rock City Recording Company. Staying true to both themselves and their sound, MXPX have remained one of pop-punk's most well-respected names for nearly two decades. New pre-order bundles of the album, LP and newly designed t-shirt are available on the band's website, www.mxpx.com/store.

    MXPX is Mike Herrera (bass/vocals), Tom Wisniewski (guitars) and Yuri Ruley (drums). The band has sold over 2.5 million records worldwide and look to continue that momentum.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ....

    MXPX TO RELEASE FIRST IN-DEPTH MUSIC DOCUMENTARY,
    "BOTH ENDS BURNING" THROUGH LEFT COAST FILMS DIGITALLY ON DECEMBER 1, PHYSICAL VERSION AVAILABLE DECEMBER 8....

    Ninth Studio Album Pushed To Early 2012;
    New "Untitled" Track Demoed Live In Closing Credits ....

    .. ..

    Los Angeles, CA, November 9, 2011 – Legendary Bremerton, WA punk trio, MxPx will release a music documentary entitled Both Ends Burning, featuring footage from the band's 2008 world tour all the way to the band's sold-out Seattle show in March 2011. In this brutally honest depiction of the band, MxPx finds themselves at a crossroads in their career, struggling to find the balance between full time jobs, and the life of a touring musician. Directed by Bryan Buchelt of Snaproll Studios, the DVD will be available digitally on December 1 through most online retail outlets and the band's website (www.mxpx.com). The physical version, which includes over 20 minutes of deleted scenes, will be available December 8 through the band's website. Pre-order packages are available now. ....

    .. ..

    Since the release of their third album Life In General in 1996, which launched them to success with hits "Chick Magnet" "Move To Bremerton", and "Doing Time", MxPx has been on the road constantly, touring first across the country and then around the world. Touring since the age of 15, they've weathered the trials of friendship and the pressure of performing every night. However, the love/hate relationship of their friendship has endured in tight quarters, and the unexpected experience touring the world brings has reaffirmed of the legacy MxPx has built within the last 19 years by fellow bands and fans.....

    .. ..

    A documentary about both life and music, Both Ends Burning is both a realization of how far the band has come, and how much further they want to go. Nearing two decades of playing together, it was late 2010 when drummer Yuri Ruley questioned being in the band and performed what he thought would be his last performance as a full-time member of MxPx at Wasted Space in The Hard Rock Cafe, Las Vegas. At the same time, guitarist Tom Wisniewski turned in his part-time status as well, taking on a full-time job in Bremerton. ....

    .. ..

    But playing that show in Las Vegas provided more than a chance to reminisce about the past through their first full Life In General live set, the sold-out show helped rekindling the spark of creativity, reaffirming that Ruley and Wisniewski would continue with the band but would drastically scale back on touring. Both have since remained members of the band and are currently in the studio with vocalist and bassist, Mike Herrera finishing up their ninth full-length album, to be released in early 2012.....

    .. ..

    In addition to featuring some of the bands travel experiences, remedies to handling conflict and personal space issues while on the road, the DVD also includes interviews with friends and peers of the band that continue to support the band and their music. Special guests include: Ethan Luck (Relient K), Stephen Egerton (Descendants), Jeremy McKinnon (A Day To Remember), Chris Demakes (Less Than Jake), along with many more, add their individual anecdotes to the story, collectively agreeing on how influential the band has been and the true legacy the band has built.....

  • MXPX ALL-STARS TO HEADLINE SOUTH AMERICAN 
& EUROPEAN TOUR

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


    MXPX ALL-STARS TO HEADLINE SOUTH AMERICAN
    & EUROPEAN TOUR; TUMBLEDOWN TO SUPPORT

    New All-Star Line-Up Featuring Mike Herrera, Jose Garzon of FLF
    And Harley Trotland of Tumbledown

    Los Angeles, CA, September 29, 2011 – Back on international duty, MxPx All-Stars will embark on a
    three-week tour through South America and Europe starting on October 12 in Mexico City, Mexico and ending on October 29 in Stadthalle Buelach, Switzerland.

    In 2010 the All-Star version of Bremerton, WA's infamous pop-punk trio, MxPx, originated as an outlet for frontman and bassist Mike Herrera to still tour while guitarist Tom Wisniewski and drummer Yuri Ruley took time off. After the success of 2010's Japan and Asia shows and 2011's Soundwave Festival dates throughout Australia, featuring Ataris frontman Kris Roe on guitar and Chris Wilson of The Summer Obsession on drums, Herrera decided to keep the momentum going and the impromptu performances alive by shaking up the line-up and bit. This tour's line-up features Herrera along with Jose Garzon of FLF on guitar and Harley Trotland of Tumbledown, on drums.

    Herrera's alt-country band Tumbledown will be the main support on the tour. Having toured the U.S. and Mexico, this will be the band's first trip to South America and Europe. Herrera and Trotland will be playing in each of the bands for each show. Tumbledown is touring support of their sophomore album, Empty Bottle, the band's second release through indie label End Sounds, which is proving to be a defining album for Tumbledown, a follow-up to their self-titled album released in 2009.

    The music of MxPx has been known for its ability to unite formerly distinguished fan bases such as the skate/surf community and the punk underground for almost two decades. The song selection on this tour will consist of tracks from MxPx's massive catalog, some acoustic versions from Herrera, and of course, some new material from their ninth full-length album, which will be released early 2012.

    For constant updates on the tour, please visit www.mxpx.com.
