Video: Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue Acoustic, a look back on the past 10 years, and UK tour dates.

I don't know about you, but  American pop-punk Yellowcard - Ryan Key (vocals/guitar), Sean Mackin (violin), Longineu (“LP”) Parsons (drums), Ryan Mendez (guitar) and Josh Portman (bass) - were a huge part of my music collection when I was a teenager;  So, it's great news to hear their 2003 single ‘Ocean Avenue’ has been certified platinum (that's one million copies sold) in the US this year.

In honour of this, Yellowcard have released an acoustic version of the song in video form with cool footage of fans singing along from all over the world.

They’ve also released a video that looks back at the album of the same name ahead of the release of  an acoustic version of 'Ocean Avenue', which will be released through Hopeless Records on 12th August, and consist of a  re-imagining of all 13 songs from that album in an acoustic format.

 

Then, the band will be touring throughout the US, Europe & Australia performing the entire album acoustically, and closing the show with an electric set that features tracks from their other albums.  

Yellowcard -  'Ocean Avenue Acoustic' will be released via Hopeless Records on August 12, 2013.

Currently available for pre-order on iTunes here.
