Mr. Adam Siska, here to bring you the latest news from The Academy Is…

This summer we will be traveling across the United States playing a series of shows with legendary Rock n’ Rollers: KISS.

As a band, we have decided to play some of our own headlining shows in between our stops with KISS.

We felt that this summer would be the perfect time for us to visit some new places, as well as revisit some of our favorite places throughout the years.

Check out the tour dates and come see us!!

Plan a road trip!!

Bring your parents, bring your cousins, bring your best friend, bring your best friends parents, bring your best friends brother, bring your stepdad’s best friends mom!

If you’re in jail….. BREAK OUT!!!!!

JUST BE THERE!

We will be playing a wide variety of our material at these shows, and we will be taking requests.  These shows will be the most intimate that we have ever done.  I am even considering playing with no shirt on!!!!

We can’t wait to see you there!

Hello-

As some of you may have heard, TAI will be going on a summer tour of the United States supporting Rock & Roll Legends KISS.

We feel like this tour will be an exciting time for us as a band, and we look forward to seeing some of you out at these shows.

Bring your Mommy, bring your Daddy, you can even bring Happy Gilmore’s Grandmother, as long as she wears her KISS mask.

We recognize that this tour may seem larger than life, so we plan on booking some other shows for the off days on the tour.

The tour will not effect the release date or the direction of our new record.

We are thrilled with the progress we are making with the songs, and we look forward to spending time together, traveling across this beautiful land once again.

We can’t wait to see you!

Love, TAI
