Originally released on
September 22, 1998, via Warner Records,
Dizzy Up The Girl catapulted the band into mainstream success, selling over 6 million copies worldwide. The album has gone 5x Certified Platinum in the U.S. and features 5 top 10 singles, including hit songs such as "Iris" (4 GRAMMY-nominations, 8x Certified Platinum, over 1 billion Spotify streams), "
Slide" (3x Certified Platinum, 240 million Spotify streams) and "

Goo Goo Dolls will also release Live At The Academy on October 20, which was recorded during their CMJ
Music Marathon performance in New York City on November 21, 1995. Last week, the group debuted a live version of their track "Stop The World," appearing on their 1993 album
Superstar Car Wash.
In 1995, the rapidly ascending three-piece traveled to New York City for CMJ
Music Marathon. On the eve of what would be their biggest show in New York at that time, the group delivered a stripped-down soundcheck performance for Tom Calderone's radio station "Dare to be Different" on 92.7 FM, which was mixed and recorded by legendary producer Jerry Finn (Blink-182, The Offspring).
Not only was it the first time the trio had ever recorded a live show but it was their debut acoustic performance in front of a live audience. Both the soundcheck performance and the group's show at The Academy captured a special moment in their blossoming career.
The band will continue to take their lauded live show on the road this
September with special guests Fitz and the Tantrums. The Big Night Out Tour will see
Goo Goo Dolls delivering career-encompassing sets that feature songs from their recent album
Chaos in Bloom and other hits from their complete discography.
In addition, the band will be partnering with Joe Torre Safe At Home 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. Full tour routing can be found below while further ticketing information can be found now.
