Excitement over THE JULIANA THEORY reuniting for their 20th anniversary tour has been deafening – with fans elated over the news that the band is returning to the stage after a 7 year absence and salivating at the first glimpse of the exclusive vinyl re-issue of the band’s cult-classic record, Emotion Is Dead, only available via the tour VIP ticket package.

In a recent interview with lead singer Brett Detar, Billboard remarked on how well “Emo’s Pop Masterpiece” has aged, “Emotion is a sonic cousin of Jimmy Eat World’s 1999 touchstone Clarity — a wildly ambitious punk record that breaks up its breakdowns and gang vocals with drum machines, electronic interludes and a two-song, psychedelic tour de force in its final 15 minutes.”

Today, more fans of The Juliana Theory will be able to catch a performance as the band has announced a second round of dates for their 20th anniversary tour. Taking the band through parts of the Mid-West and most of California, the 20 date routing will surely help the band get their sea-legs ready for the Warped Tour Rewind Cruise in October. What will happen with The Juliana Theory after this run, only time will tell, but for now the band is just excited to be celebrating this milestone together and with their fans. “You step away from something for seven years and you realize you miss the small stuff – all the joking around with your buddies. Even just the band text chain that started once we decided to do this tour – full of us all making fun of each other and kidding around – that kind of stuff,” explains Detar. Adding, “It’s hard to quantify the relationship you have when you’re in a band with people you’ve known forever – some since you were 5 or 6 years old. You literally grow up with these guys. Every failure and every success you share for so long and I think that forms a very deep bond that doesn’t really diminish over time.”
