  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  

5 SECONDS OF SUMMER ANNOUNCE RELEASE OF NEW SINGLE “SHE’S KINDA HOT” JULY 17

 

  (TORONTO – 16 July, 2015) - The biggest breakthrough band of 2014, 5 Seconds of Summer (5SOS) today announce the release of their brand new single ‘She’s Kinda Hot’. ‘She’s Kinda Hot’ is the first single from the follow up to their self-titled debut album, which is currently certified gold in Canada and has sold in excess of three million copies worldwide. A lyrically mischievous riot of an anthem - all crunchy guitars, high octane drums and a massive chorus, ‘She’s Kinda Hot’ sees 5SOS scream back onto the scene in a big, big way. Having spent the last two months performing sold out shows across the UK, Europe and Australia including three massive sold out nights at the SSE Wembley Arena, 5SOS celebrate the release of their new single by kicking off the Canadian leg of their world tour in Vancouver July 25. By the end of the tour, the boys will have played to 1,000,000 plus fans in 2015 across three continents. The band will spend their summer on the North American leg of their ‘Rock Out With Your Socks Out’ worldwide tour, playing to legions of loyal fans in arenas and amphitheaters across the country. 5SOS’s electric live performances continue to be the cornerstone of their remarkable success. 5SOS were one of the biggest breakthrough stories of the last 18 months; four multi-million selling singles, a self-titled debut album that not only topped the Canadian Album Chart (going to #1 globally on iTunes in 76 countries) but also became the third biggest pre-order in iTunes history and the biggest US debut by an Australian artist ever.
