An emo orchestra is going on tour: “For emo lovers and orchestra aficionados alike”

The Emo Orchestra is teaming up with Hawthorne Heights for an inaugural U.S. tour “that brings together the emo hits of your youth with a touch of adult elegance”.

A brand-new touring show has been announced for “emo lovers and orchestra aficionados alike”.

Entitled Emo Orchestra (obvs), the inaugural run will feature special guests Hawthorne Heights playing their own songs as well as ‘a vast array of emo hits’ by the likes of Taking Back Sunday, Fall Out Boy and Dashboard Confessional.

The official Emo Orchestra website promises “a unique and incredible new experience that brings together the emo hits of your youth with a touch of adult elegance”, and describes the whole thing as a “perfectly designed tribute to the music that shaped emo fans when the genre first exploded, but is tailored to the people its fans have become in the years since”.
