MKTO Announces 2014 North American Headlining Tour

Following the success of their debut album, MKTO is hitting the road in 2014 on their very first headlining tour of North America — and we've got the dates!

The duo announced the big news this morning (May 7) on ‘Live with Kelly and Michael,’ followed by a performance of their single ‘Classic’ to pump up fans about soon getting a chance to hear the song live.

Members Malcolm Kelley and Tony Oller will be zigzagging coast-to-coast (with a stopover in Canada) on their 36-date tour, which begins June 27 in Detroit, Mich. We expect to hear some of our favorites from their self-titled album, including their perky, anthemic first single ‘Thank You.’

The California natives first met in 2010 on the set of the Nickelodeon TV series ‘Gigantic.’ It’s fitting that their characters were best friends on the show, because the pair bonded instantly. Their shared love of music eventually led to team up as MKTO, and so far it seems to be working out pretty well for them!

When the boys sat down with us last month, they expressed how excited and appreciative they are of their newfound success.

“To see your record at No. 7, debuting in the Top 10 is incredible,” Tony shared.

We can only imagine how excited they are now that they’re heading out on their own tour!

Take a look at the full list of tour dates below to see if MKTO is hitting a city near you.
