With the release of their fifth studio album Little White Lies
on April 14, 2009 (MRI/RED Dist.),
the members of FASTBALL have been taking
their show on the road.

Wowing audiences with seven shows at SXSW last month, Fastball have perfected a set that is chock full of new material such as "All I Was Looking For Was You", "The Malcontent (The Modern World)" and the first single, "Little White Lies". Of course, some old classics like "Out of My Head" and "The Way" off of their Grammy nominated album, All the Pain Money Can Buy make their way into the set to keep new and old fans happy.

Beginning the trek at LA's The Mint on April 25th, Fastball will travel up the West Coast to Seattle and then head Westward making stops in Chicago, Columbus and New York City on May 9th before heading South to finish up the tour in Charlottesville, VA on May 13th, 2009.
Little White Lies, produced by C.J. Eiriksson (Blue October, Jack's Mannequin) and vocalist/guitarist Miles Zuniga, boasts the same great harmonies, retro guitar riffs and toe-tapping melodies that encompass the very being of Fastball.

The addition of Corey Glaeser (bass) to the live band frees Tony Scalzo (guitar, piano, vox) to tickle the ivories and strum his guitar while completing Fastball's dual vocal attack, and brings an entirely new element to the live show. With the support of Joey Shuffield's clockwork drumbeats, this show is guaranteed to keep you whistling and humming all the way home.
