5 Seconds of Summer at Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre

5 Seconds of Summer continue conquering the US this year on their Sounds Live Feels Live Tour! The rambunctious pop punk band comes to First Midwest Bank Ampitheatre on Saturday 30th July, for a night of fierce, fun music that harks bank to late ’90s/mid-aughts bands like Blink-182! Don’t miss out on what will be the show of the summer!

Hailing from Sydney, Australia, 5 Seconds of Summer started their music career as YouTube sensations in 2011, covering a variety of chart hits. After their pop punk cover of Chris Brown’s Next To You received over 600,000 views, the band garnered interest from a variety of different major record labels and publishers, eventually signing a publishing deal with Sony ATV Music Publishing. Their debut EP Unplugged reached number 3 on the iTunes chart in Australia and the Top 20 in both New Zealand and Sweden, despite receiving no promotion other than on social media. In 2013, 5 Seconds of Summer rose to international fame after supporting One Direction on their Take Me Home Tour. Their eponymous debut album was released in June 2014 throughout Europe and Australia, and later in other territories. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Chart and peaked at No. 1 in 13 countries as well as reaching the Top 10 in 26 countries, and won a Kerrang! Award. In October 2015, having finished their “Rock Out With Your Socks Out Tour” of Europe, Australia, New Zealand and North America, 5 Second of Summer released their second studio album Sounds Good Feels Good.
