AS THEY PREPARE FOR A NEW ALBUM RELEASE IN 2009

THE CRYSTAL METHOD ANNOUNCE

NORTH AMERICAN DJ TOUR DATES FOR THIS FALL

For the last year in between their weekly Friday night radio show ‘Community Service’ on Indie 103.1 in Los Angeles, THE CRYSTAL METHOD--the electronic duo of Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland--have been hard at work crafting their fourth studio album. Details of the still-untitled release (due out in early 2009) will be revealed at a later date, but fans around North America will be able to experience the new recordings on a buzz DJ tour launching October 9 at Tentation in Newport Beach, CA.

The tour consists of over 30 weekend DJ appearances and will carry on to the end of December. Every weekend the duo will appear at the hottest clubs in America such as Ruby Skye in San Francisco, Ampersand in New Orleans and Vision in Chicago, testing out their new material along with their favorite tracks. They’ll also dip into secondary and tertiary tour markets like El Paso, Knoxville and Columbus.

To help boost visibility for the tour, THE CRYSTAL METHOD secured a North American tour package with Track Entertainment that encompasses a full marketing and ticket solution for fans through their personal database and social network sites with MySpace, Facebook, Clubplanet, Clubvibes, Cooljunkie, Noche Latina and other collaborative efforts. Tickets for all dates on the tour will be available for purchase via: www.wantickets.com/thecrystalmethod.

As THE CRYSTAL METHOD, Jordan and Kirkland have been fixtures on the electronic music scene for more than a decade. Over the course of three studio albums (the groundbreaking platinum-selling debut Vegas, Tweekend, Legion Of Boom), two mix records (Community Service I & II) and soundtracks for film (London) and running (Drive), the band has cemented its reputation through successful collaborations with rock heavyweights and years of touring, both as a live act and as DJs.
