Third Eye Blind’s Stephan Jenkins commented:

“I have this sense that I am feeling the same way everybody else is—that we need a summer tour so badly, like more than ever. We need the lights, the noise, the heat and everybody up close to each other, singing as one. Can’t wait.”

Yellowcard’s Ryan Key continued:

“Third Eye Blind self-titled is a masterclass in songwriting that blew all of our minds when it released in 1997. As 90s kids we were gifted with so much incredible music in our formative years and we are all such massive fans of the band because of that record. It doesn’t feel real yet that we will be sharing the stage with one of our all time favorite bands every night this summer.”

A R I Z O N A’s Nate Esquite added:

“Third Eye Blind was the soundtrack to so many summer adventures during high school!. My friends and I would drive up and down the NJ Parkway blasting “Semi-Charmed Life” out the windows and dreaming about one day playing PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel as we passed. To be a part of this tour is a dream come true in so many ways – being able to sing our hearts out to 3EB every night and playing so many incredible venues along the way.”

In other news, Third Eye Blind will also be celebrating the 25th anniversary of “Jumper” with .999 silver-coated and .997 karat gold-coated vinyl. The 5”, 7 ounce records are playable at 33 RPMs and they will include a special engraving inspired by their self-titled album on the B-side. Jenkins said the following about that:

“25 years in, ‘Jumper’ makes a message of the value of a common heart. I’m happy that this is the first message immortalized on precious metals. The song has gone from dark to light. It started as a noir—where I am talking to somebody telling what I would have said to them had they not jumped off the Coronado bridge. Pretty dark stuff. Now when I sing it, it is a celebration of understanding and inclusivity and you can see how eager people are to express that feeling. I love it. I love the transition.”
