Parachute Announces Co-Headlining Fall Tour with Kate Voegele

Special Live Set To Kick Off the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup at Chicagoland Speeday September 17th

Exclusive KENNETH COLE In-Store Performance Set for FASHION'S NIGHT OUT September 8th

Radio Disney Adds "Something To Believe In"

[BG49c34-R01-008-lr]After recently teasing fans with the news of a handful of live dates planned for this Fall, Parachute has now announced a full co-headlining tour with Kate Voegele, which will include stops in Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Chicago, Seattle and Austin. Additional dates will be announced in the coming weeks.

The announcement comes amidst Parachute's U.S. summer tour with Goo Goo Dolls and a series of major TV performances including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno<http://theaudioperv.com/2011/05/20/parachute-something-to-believe-in-519-leno/> and Jimmy Kimmel Live<http://theaudioperv.com/2011/06/30/parachute-something-to-believe-in-629-kimmel/>.  The band's new album The Way It Was (Mercury Records), which hit #1 on the iTunes Rock Chart and debuted in the Billboard Top 20, features the Top 15 smash hit "Something To Believe In" which was just added on Radio Disney. Follow-up single "Kiss Me Slowly," co-written with Grammy-winners Lady Antebellum, is bound to pack just as much of a punch and has already hit the #1 spot on the iTunes Rock Songs Chart.

Prior to heading out on the road with Kate Voegele, Parachute is heading to New York City for Fashion's Night Out on September 8th. The band will play a very special 5-song set that evening at the Kenneth Cole store in Soho (595 Broadway). The first-come-first-serve event, which will also feature an appearance from Kenneth Cole himself, is from 6-11pm EST. Cocktails and bar snacks will be served.

On September 17th, you can find Parachute in Chicago at the Chicagoland Speedway for an exclusive live performance following NASCAR's Dollar General 300 powered by Coca-Cola. The three-day weekend, which will also feature a set from Darius Rucker, kicks off the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup - a series of NASCAR Sprint Cup races in pursuit of the 2011 Championship.

So far it has been full steam ahead this year for Parachute. Aside from incredible chart debuts for The Way It Was, produced by John Fields (Goo Goo Dolls, Switchfoot, P!nk), a run of sold out June headlining dates and late-night TV performances, the band played the ESPYs Countdown Show prior to the 2011 ESPYs on ESPN.
