We are excited to announce that Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers will mount an extensive TOUR OF NORTH AMERICA this summer and also release their first studio album in eight years, Mojo, this spring.

The tour begins May 6 in Raleigh, NC and will take the band throughout the US and Canada all summer long. Special guests on the tour will include a mix of appearances by My Morning Jacket, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Joe Cocker, ZZ Top, and Drive-By Truckers.

Tickets for many of the shows go onsale to the public Monday March 8. Highway Companions Club presales will begin on Wednesday March 3.

Mojo is Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers’ twelfth studio album and is the sound of a band making some of its most exhilarating music, over thirty years into their career.

Every online ticket purchased to the tour comes with an MP3 download copy of Mojo, delivered via email on the album’s release date, scheduled for this spring.

Upon purchasing their ticket to the tour fans will receive an email with codes entitling them to download two tracks from Mojo right away. The tracks are “First Flash Of Freedom” and “Good Enough.”

“Good Enough” is currently streaming exclusively on TomPetty.com. Click here to listen.

Plus, fans who purchase tickets online and download Mojo will also receive 8 tracks recorded during the 2010 Tour to be delivered after the tour. Members of the Highway Companions Club will receive an additional 6 live tracks for a total of 14 at the end of the tour.

More details on Mojo will be released in the coming weeks. In the meantime make sure to check out all the tour dates here!

rebeldog - 14 March, 2010 wattsup Ticketmaster is advertising St Louis Petty show going on sale March 20th. NO mention of the show here let alone a presale. what is up with that any other cities not get a presale feom this site?

- 13 March, 2010 THANKS Tom Petty & THB. You guys aren't without a doubt my main influence! Since I was 13 I have been a HUGE x1000000000 fan! There is NO other band in the WORLD that compares with the BRILLIANCE of you guy's music! So now for the past 3 years I've been your fan & to be honest I cried in 2008 when I couldn't go see you guys in Raleigh NC 30 minutes away from my house lol. This year because of you guys I plan on learning guitar & joining a band! Hopefully I can be in a band that becomes 1/10000 as popular as you guys. Im now happy to say that in less than 2 months, I will be seeing you guys in Raleigh! It will be the greatest night of my life even though I'll be watching from the lawn cause ticket prices lol. Anyways thank you guys VERY VERY for everything you've done for us die hard fans & new comers to rock music! & Maybe my some God given miracle , I'll be able to meet you guys! - Again- by some GOD GIVEN MIRACLE lol ( laugh out loud) ; ) GOD BLESS you guys forever! I know your mom would be / is proud of you Tom!!! I know us fans are!

buni - 10 March, 2010 Buni CSN fans are getting screwed on ticket presales because of this combined tour. why should I have to purchase a Tom Petty fan club package to see CSN???

bayhat - 9 March, 2010 bayhat i'm going to the first show in raliegh on may 6th, i got a great seat but paid 150 for it, has anyone been to this venue and is there any kind of shuttle or bus's that go there from downtown, i'm flying from out of town and could use the info, thanks

champagne_cheryl - 9 March, 2010 TP Lover I am a bit upset that I did not get notice of presale A vs. presale B group until after the fact. Not enough time to act on it and it was not explained that you needed to update membership before 3/1, even if your tour date was not on presale yet. I have been a TP fan forever and have seen EVERY show so will no doubt miss this one but long time fans who have been part of Fan Club should have presale access together as one group. Where did this A vs. B group idea come from? I am sure TP would not approve!!

lisastl - 9 March, 2010 Thrilled Thrilled to hear about tour, was way let down when I seen no St. Louis date. TOM YOU HAVE TO COME HERE!!!

ajculp - 9 March, 2010 Happy in Music City I love the highway companions club!!!It puts the good tickets in the hands of the true fans and out of the hands of the scalpers. I got FRONT ROW SEATS today! Thank you TP and the HB! thank you, thank you! See u in Nashville. Can't wait! TeeeeeePeeeeeee!!!!!!!

sarahpeyto - 9 March, 2010 thank you! thank you for coming to play.. on my birthday! couldn't ask for anything better.
