Already racking up over 30 million streams, with breakout performances on Jimmy Kimmel, Steven Colbert’s The Late Show, and CBS Saturdays, and having sold out several tours across UK/Europe and US previously, the band are thrilled to bring their new release to fans in a live setting.
Fan favourite and Vacations drummer, Joey Van Lier, says: “No Place Like Home has been a massive labour of love for us over the past three years. We’ve shared tears, hugs and a lot of laughter during the making of this bad boy and now I am beyond excited for us to finally be able to bring these songs to you for the NPLH World Tour.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting our silly little band on this huge journey. You mean more to us than you could possibly know, and sharing these concerts together will be so incredibly special. See y’all on the road xx”
A DIY affair from the get-go, the band Vacations formed in 2016 primarily as a songwriting vehicle for Campbell Burns, Burns later adding band members Jake Johnson, Nate Delizzotti, and Joseph Van Lier. Their song ‘Young’ is certified Gold in Canada, Australia, and Poland, and is certified Platinum in the U.S., and their single ‘Telephones’ is also certified Platinum in the US as of December 2023.
The band has racked up over 1.5 billion streams worldwide, an average of 65 million streams/month, including over 750 million streams within the last year and over 2.5m Shazams.
Not just a streaming band, the group has become known for their raucous live shows, doubling venues from 500 capacity to 2,000+ in under two years. They sold out both of their headline US tours since 2022 and their first ever UK run, followed by yet another sold out set of dates with their massive North American fall co-headline tour with Last Dinosaurs that included shows at Webster Hall and The Novo, and have performed at Austin City Limits, All Things Go Festival, The Great Escape, All Points East, and appeared live on The Jimmy Kimmel Show, CBS Saturday Morning and Stephen Colbert. They kicked off 2024 with breakout performances at Laneway Festival in Australia this February.
