Maroon 5 tour gets support from Guster, Owl City, Kris Allen

Maroon 5 will be back on stage this summer with a nearly 30-date North American tour. The itinerary currently opens with a July 30 event at Saratoga Performing Arts Center in Saratoga Springs, NY, and continues through an August 29 gig at Trib Total Media Amphitheatre in Pittsburgh, PA.

Only 16 concerts have been confirmed so far, but additional event dates will be added in the future. The current calendar includes gig stops on August 1 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT; August 10 at Comcast Center in Mansfield, MA; and August 19 at Bayfront Park Amphitheater in Miami, FL.

Main supporting duties will be split among Guster (July 30-August 1), Owl City (August 4-15) and Kris Allen (August 19-29). In addition to those acts, Ry Cuming will open concerts from July 30 through August 4, with VV Brown then stepping in from August 5 through the tour’s end.

One-man synth-pop act Owl City has successfully headlined and sold out several headline tours of his own since his 2009 breakthrough. As such, his pairing with Maroon 5 on select tour dates could be an added boon to the veteran band’s ticket sales.

The first public onsales begin May 14, with more onsale dates scheduled for later this month and in June. Ticket prices will vary from venue to venue, with most set within the $25 to $65 range, according to current listings on Ticketmaster.com. More details are available on Maroon 5’s official Web site.

Maroon 5 is currently awaiting the release of its third studio album, “Hands All Over,” scheduled for release on September 21. The record is a follow-up to 2007’s “It Won’t Be Soon Before Long” and the group’s 2002 debut “Songs About Jane.”
