ANNOUNCES FIRST NORTH AMERICAN HEADLINE TOUR
TICKETS ON SALE NOW
Miami-born and Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, and pop-punk provocateur Games We Play (a.k.a Emmyn Calleiro) has released his major label debut EP, Get A Job. The five-track collection is out today via Fueled By Ramen/DCD2 Records, and is available now on all streaming platforms. Chantable title track “Get A Job” and companion visualizer are out now.
“I am super excited to put out this record. I feel like all the songs, especially ‘Get a Job’, embody exactly who I am,” explains Emmyn. “From dropping out, to looking like Channing Tatum, to ultimately proving my wife’s parents wrong (we’re cool now btw)…I am stoked this is out.”
The Get A Job EP was introduced with viral breakout single “I Hope You’re Happy” and anthemic track “St. Girlfriend” – the latter of which Emmyn wrote about his friend pooping his pants on a date. Earlier this summer, Games We Play announced his Fueled By Ramen/DCD2 Records signing in an exclusive interview with Consequence. Watch how Games We Play signed featuring DCD2 Records Founder and Fall Out Boy bassist and visionary Pete Wentz HERE. To herald the announcement, Games We Play unveiled an official music video for his viral breakout single “I Hope You’re Happy”. Watch it on Fueled By Ramen’s official YouTube channel HERE. In the clip, Emmyn’s contagious enthusiasm, bold personality, and hilarious sense of humor come to life on screen as the magnetic pop-punk refrain resounds with chantable turn-of-the-century bliss.
Fresh off a 17-city U.S. tour supporting The Band CAMINO and select dates on Sad Summer Festival 2022, Games We Play recently announced his first ever headline tour. The nine-date North American headline run kicks off on November 7th in Toronto, ON, with stops in Chicago, New York, Nashville, and more. Games We Play will also be joining State Champs on select dates of their ‘Kings of the New Age Tour’. A complete list of upcoming tour dates can be found below.
