The Chainsmokers Announce Debut Album & 2017 Arena Tour

1/30/2017 by Matt Medved

After teasing a major announcement on social media, The Chainsmokers today (Jan. 30) announced their first full-length album and a major arena tour encompassing 40 North American cities.

It appears Coldplay jumped the gun by tweeting their anticipation for The Chainsmokers' debut LP, and the New York duo confirmed the news.

While an official release date via Columbia / Disruptor Records has not been announced, Billboard hears that the album is due in early April.

The Chainsmokers have previously stated that a potential album release was "up to our fans," and judging by an Instagram post last night, the guys heard their verdict loud and clear. 

Kicking off in April, the Memories: Do Not Open Tour will feature new production and support from special guest Kiiara and Emily Warren. Every ticket purchased online for the tour includes a copy of The Chainsmokers’ forthcoming debut album.

Presale tickets will be available at 3 p.m. ET via Citi's Private Pass website. The general on-sale will begin on Friday, Feb. 3 via Ticketmaster.
