Goo Goo Dolls news

Goo Goo Dolls have announced their 13th studio album Chaos in Bloom, arriving August 12 via Warner Records. It is the first album of their career to be produced by frontman John Rzeznik. 
Pre-order HERE.

“Chaos in Bloom reminded us how special this whole thing is and to cherish the relationships that we have together,” says Rzeznik about the album. “Where we’ve been, and where we’re going.” 

“I’ve been trying to have a relationship with the bigger picture,” adds bassist and songwriter Robby Takac, “and refining happiness and what it means from that perspective.”

To record the album, Rzeznik and Takac retreated to Dreamland Studios just outside Woodstock, New York during the pandemic. The band blended vintage instruments and gear with modern recording processes and techniques.

First single “Yeah, I Like You” critiques celebrity culture and the people who work so hard to look so disaffected while masking insecurities with false self-assuredness. “In a world that is just drowning in social media and internet stars, many of whom are certainly talented, but many confirm that in 2022 you can be famous for doing nothing,” says Rzeznik. 

“Celebrity in this age has a very quick burn. It was hard not to be consumed by it during the pandemic.” Listen to “Yeah, I Like You” now and watch the official music video now HERE.

For the first time since 2019, the band will embark on a tour this summer. Set to kick off on July 15 in Nampa, ID, the nationwide tour will see Blue October provide support for the entire run. More information and tickets can be found at the band’s website HERE.

Goo Goo Dolls will be partnering with the Joe Torre Safe At Home Foundation for the tour, a nonprofit founded in 2002 by Ali and Joe Torre to provide healing and education services to youth who have been traumatized by exposure to violence including domestic violence, child abuse, teen dating abuse, and sexual assault to help break the cycle of violence.
