Multiplatinum indie pop trio AJR have announced a show at the 3Olympia for 26th September 2022.

The Met brothers, Adam (bass, vocals), Jack (vocals, guitar), and Ryan (ukulele, piano, vocals), write, produce, and record music in their living room. Their latest album, ‘OK Orchestra’, was released in March 2021 to roaring success, debuting at number 10 on the Billboard 200.

“We really tried to create a world on this album,” says Ryan of the album. “With each record, our fanbase has grown steadily. Their support made us more confident to invite them into this space. We really embraced who we are, and it’s the most diverse album we’ve ever made. It’s got some of our happiest and most jovial songs. It’s got some of our saddest and angriest songs. We’re expanding what we do. It’s exciting.”

That world sees the brothers blend brushstrokes of intricate alternative rock, hummable pop, and Broadway bombast.

Since 2012, AJR have generated billions of streams and earned one triple-platinum single, one double-platinum single, four platinum singles, and one platinum album. 2019’s ‘Neotheater’ marked their biggest first-week debut, bowing at number 8 on the Billboard Top 200, number 1 on the Top Alternative Albums Chart, and number 1 on the Top Rock Albums Chart. Spotify touted Sober Up (feat. Rivers Cuomo) among the “Best Rock Songs of the 2010s,” while Apple Music included “Weak” on its “Best Alt Songs of the 2010s.”

The trio remain one of the “500 Most-Listened to Artists” on Spotify. On the heels of ‘Neotheater’, they dropped the 2020 platinum smash hit BANG!, which they performed on TODAY, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. This effectively set the stage for the release of ‘OK Orchestra’.
