All American Rejects

Beyond a band, All-American Rejects is four friends who discovered one other and scored the American dream.

Front man Tyson Ritter and lead guitarist Nick Wheeler founded the group and released the EP, “Same Girl, New Songs” in the summer of 2001. Mike Kennerty and Chris Gaylor joined in 2002 and the new quartet hit stores with their self-titled long play debut, “The All-American Rejects”, scoring commercial success with the single, “Swing Swing.” They toured tirelessly and in July 2005, presented their fans with Move Along, a breakout effort featuring three smash hits, “Dirty Little Secret,” “It Ends Tonight,” and the LP’s inspiring anthemic title track.

From down home southern boys to multi-platinum stars, AAR broke through the pabulum of mainstream pop with a a cache of great songs and an authentic connection to their adoring audience. The release of their third album, 'When the World Comes Down', spawned their biggest single to date – ‘Gives You Hell’ – which reached #3 on the Australian ARIA chart and achieved platinum certification, ensuring The All-American Rejects are a household name. When the World Comes Down has been The All-American Rejects’ best received album of their career.

The album saw the band scale new heights while maintaining the pop-punk base Rejects fans have come to love. Last here in February as they supported Fall Out Boy across the country, The All-American Rejects make their highly anticipated return to headline their biggest shows to date in Australia. Their overflowing energy, and enigmatic stage presence left fans begging for more, and the critics in awe of their unforgettable performances. See The All-American Rejects perform their latest smash hit single “I Wanna” on Rove this Sunday.

The album is “When The World Comes Down” and its out now.
