Following an epic week which saw the band kick-off their first ever headline arena tour in Phoenix and play to over 25,000 fans over two shows at the LA Forum, 5SOS thank their fans bytoday announcing the release of live album ‘LIVESOS’ on December 15th through Capitol Records UK.

As the biggest selling debut band so far this year, 5SOS’s electric live performances have been the cornerstone of their success, winning them millions of loyal fans all around the world, and setting them apart from any other breakthrough bands this year.

It has been the breakthrough story of the year andwhat a year these guys have had.  Four multimillion selling singles under their belts, a self-titled debut album that not only topped the US Album Chart (going to #1 globally on iTunes in 76 countries) but also became the third biggest pre-order in iTunes history.  5 Seconds Of Summer have also recently won three awards (Best New, Best Push and Artist on the Rise) at this year’s MTV EMA’s and have sold-out three shows at SSE Wembley Arena for their ‘Rock Out With Your Socks Out 2015 Tour’.

The band was recently in LA to unveil a virtual world for their fans at Paramount Studios to kick-off a huge fan convention — Derp Con 2014.

5SOS recently announced their first ever headline UK & European arena tour which will see them perform to an army of dedicated fans over the course of two months in May and June next year. The Rock Out With Your Socks Out 2015 Tour almost completely sold-out in a matter of hours including threeshows at The SSE Arena Wembley London and topped the Ticketmaster UK Ticketing Chart, ahead of Ed Sheeran, Kasabian and Linkin Park.   Over in the US, the Rock Out With Your Socks Out Tour will take the band to amphitheaters and arenas in 30 cities throughout the U.S. and Canada. The band's first-ever North American headlining tour, produced and promoted exclusively by Live Nation, will start on July 17, 2015 and will see them perform to over 576,000 fans.

Having kicked off this year with a headline UK tour that sold out in just five minutes culminating with two SOLD OUT shows at Shepherd’s Bush Empire, the boys have spent most of 2014 playing stadiums around the world with One Direction. 2015 will see them play to over 258k fans across 13 countries in the UK & Europe in their biggest run of headline shows to date.

The Rock Sound cover stars are a true social phenomenon; they have amounted over 356 million online video views, have an astonishing combined 20.5 + million Twitter followers and have sold over four million singles to date.   The band caused hysteria when they performed on Ellen in the US recently.  Check out the video here:  http://youtu.be/TYP4UfgvyRw

Coming off the back of three huge worldwide hit singles and a self-titled debut album that has sold over two million copies worldwide in just five months, 5SOS have safely earned their place as the biggest success story of 2014, and it’s only just the beginning.
