North American Tour and New Album Announcement

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!

myetto - 9 March, 2010 Site navigation Sorry dude, but your site is whacked. Can't get anywhere, you login, try to go to order presale tix and you get sent to the home page. Fire your web guy!

bluesgirl - 9 March, 2010 Disappointed I was thrilled that there was a Darien Lake concert on my 34th wedding anniversary but somehow got put on the "B" list for presale. Have been a fanclub member for years but never got a renewal notice like I was supposed to. Now for this special occasion we'll get worse seats than we've ever had! - bluesgirl -

pattowers - 9 March, 2010 Awful price for tickets Wow, got my tickets (not the good seats -- cost too much). I'm a little disappointed/ disillusioned by the prices. Maybe the band is saving up a nest egg for retirement. I had hoped to go to two concerts, but can only afford one.

joepa15425 - 9 March, 2010 so bummed... waited and waited....finally...presale day...tickets were lousy considering how fast i hit click button...decided not worth it. oh well...maybe in 2 more years.

booktrader - 8 March, 2010 Tulsa, OK - BOK Center Dates? We are anxiously waiting to hear the TBD Tulsa, OK dates! Presales are ending in Dallas and K.City and we're starting to panic. Tom is on the "Bucket List" and we need to tick it off! Any info is appreciated!

- 8 March, 2010 Yes Got my tickets for the 31st of July! Summer did just get a whole lot better!!

surfjohnboy77 - 7 March, 2010 Welcome Back!!! Can't wait again to see Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers back in Charlotte! My wife was born in Gainesville, FL and has been singing Tom Petty songs ever since!

- 7 March, 2010 how how the hell do you buy a ticket?

- 6 March, 2010 Ahhhh Okay so I'm definitely reeeally really excited for this... but I just wish My Morning Jacket was going to play the California dates. Don't get me wrong... Joe Cocker is pretty col and it's enough to see Tom Petty, but I still wish My Morning Jacket was the opening act. A little switch wouldn't hurt anyone, right? =)

sxcotty88 - 6 March, 2010 Runnin' down a...sceme I am pumped about the concert, but $43.00 more per ticket than in 2008. What's the deal Tom?

Butch - 6 March, 2010 Butch This is the worst user friendly site I've ever been on. Where do I buy tickets? It would make it much easier to go to the concert if I could get a ticket.

tayastarr - 6 March, 2010 yet another reason why I love this man!! not only is he touring, but look at all the music we get for free!! i mean wow..I LOVE HIM..lol

ruckus - 5 March, 2010 TN Show in August Hope to hear some Southern Accents! I saw them in NC and no luck. I'm from PA but I love that song!!!! Maybe if I travel even more south, I'll have some luck!

amart - 5 March, 2010 counting the days My husband stayed home from work to buy us tickets in the presale!!! Love you TPHB!!!

Sconi60 - 5 March, 2010 Jeannie Kay Very PETTYFIED, can't wait to see you on the ROAD!!!

jpousti151 - 5 March, 2010 Justin P Greatest LIVE show ever...after the last tour swore I would not miss them if they ever did it again....May of 10...Can not wait!!!!

psychedelia - 5 March, 2010 Toronto Loves You Thank You Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers - I am so happy you are coming back to Toronto and I am thrilled to see Crosby, Stills and Nash as well. Thank you!

melissah - 5 March, 2010 Pre Sale $45 Isn't Worth it I've never missed a TP&HB show. This tour decided to join the Highway Companion Club. Paid my $45 and received the password. Email link takes you directly to Ticket Master site. Also received an email that the presale start time was delayed in KC from 10 to noon. However after numerous tries adn 45 min on hold with Ticketmaster the password is only good at the event site. So cannot buy tickets in pre-sale fan club unless drive downtown during 10 -6 M-F working hours and purchase tickets. Not good experience and wasted $45.

- 5 March, 2010 YES I will be there aug. 14 darien lake ny. For the 15th time. I love Tom Petty. very excited once again.................

scotta - 5 March, 2010 WTF I've joined the Highway Companions. I've signed up on tompetty.com. I check the website fairly regularly. Why am I never notified when a tour is announce or tickets are going on presale??? Now I'm a day late and sure to get screwed out of good seats.

summer - 5 March, 2010 pre sale i cant seem to get tickets and Im all signed up bummed summer

danamcgovern - 5 March, 2010 ticketmaster just signed up and Ticketmaster is not accepting my password fot presale for Tampa, Is there a delay in the availability to purchase at presale? Yes I am entering the correct password.

djmbackstreet - 4 March, 2010 see you soon Tom happy daze are here again just got 4 great seats to oakland cal show in june...Thanks tom for many yrs you have been a good friend to me thru & thick & thin keep on Rocking Brother & we'll keep Listening & cheering Thanks so much for all the yrs of great Music Damian...the last DJ

dneild - 4 March, 2010 Shame on you I'm a Highway Companion Club member and UK fan wanting to see TP&HB on tour. Ticketmaster will allocate me a ticket but not take my money!!!Why? Because it won't accept an non-US address!! This should be simple stuff really. Buying a ticket for a foreign concert should be routine. Apparently not the case here. Sad.

forks - 4 March, 2010 Stoked in Winnipeg I've seen you in Chicago, Minneapolis & Winnipeg. Every show was unique and everyone was on their feet rockin' from beginning till end. Can't wait till June19 when you return to our city and blow the roof off the MTS Centre. Joe Cocker should be a great act too.

rj - 4 March, 2010 presale if i purchase a membership do i get a password for the presale today

rockdr1 - 4 March, 2010 your site i have joined all the clubs paid all the money and i can't get signed in to buy tickets...... mark rockdr1

chinsky - 4 March, 2010 this is bullshit I miss the days of sleeping overnight on the grubby boston streets to get tickets for shows. anything is better than all signing up crap and presales and fan club b.s., battling the computer against pro ticket scalpers. when i was in line on the street at least i knew where i stood. I love t.p., but i thought he was better than using all of these money grubbing tactics. how much money is enough tom???

Walker7441 - 4 March, 2010 Saratoga Presale What's up. Presale for Aug 27th was to start 17 min ago? Soon?

chrisbreault - 4 March, 2010 WTF! This site sucks! I'M SIGNED IN AND CAN'T GET TICKETS!?!?
