She Wants Revenge Announces Tour Plans for Remainder of 2006

She Wants Revenge Announces Tour Plans for Remainder of 2006

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Sept. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- If you were wondering the difference a year could make, ask Adam "12" Bravin and Justin Warfield. Nine months ago, the heralded duo -- together known as She Wants Revenge -- headlined a sold-out hometown show at the historic Troubadour, in Los Angeles. Now, with sales of their acclaimed, self-titled debut approaching 250,000, SWR are gearing up for a return to L.A., this time to headline the legendary Greek Theatre.

The Greek Theatre performance is one of many that the band has announced on www.shewantsrevenge.com, where they have posted their tour plans for the remainder of 2006. Their current headlining club tour kicked off Sept. 6 in New Orleans, LA, and runs through Sept. 30, in Tempe, AZ. Following a two-week overseas trek, they return to America for a co-headlining tour with Placebo that launches Oct. 19 in Sacramento, CA, and runs through Nov. 9, in Washington D.C. She Wants Revenge will then headline another club tour -- with support act Pretty Girls Make Graves -- Nov. 10 through Nov. 25, before wrapping the year with additional dates in France and Germany.

The tours will cap what has already been a busy year for Bravin and Warfield. Following the Valentines Day release of She Wants Revenge on Flawless/Geffen Records, the duo have concentrated on spreading their dark and brooding brand of dance music to American audiences. Hand-picked by Depeche Mode to be direct support on their North American tour, SWR have performed at such marquee festivals as Coachella, Lollapollooza, and the KROQ Weenie Roast, and have made live television appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "The Late Show with Dave Letterman," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

She Wants Revenge already has one of the top-selling debuts of 2006, but ROLLING STONE Magazine takes the praise a step further, claiming that the band is " ... a sleek, haunted slice of New Wave revivalism ... outfitted with streamlines drum-machine beats, ghostly guitar shimmers ... She Wants Revenge updates the gloomy mayhem of the early Eighties Manchester scene with icy precision and stronger songs than most ... " Hailed as "One of the Year's Best Young Rock Bands," by SPIN Magazine, URB Magazine also agrees, citing that the band's sound "isn't cold or calculated, but steamy and even soulful ... "

It's not too late to see for yourself ...
