2011 has been a year of growing successes and increased exposure for Locksley. In conjunction with their single "The Whip" impacting at many radio stations across Top 40 and Alternative Rock formats over the last few weeks, songs from the album are currently featured in national tv ad campaigns for both Ford and Chevy. The band have also recently performed for the MLB Fancave as well as MTV's "Ten on Top" and "Buzzworthy" series. In addition to all of this, the band saw a dream come true when following a packed performance at Summer Stage this past Thursday, the Wisconsin natives were honored to sing the national anthem at a Milwaukee Brewers game.

Highlights earlier in the year included having their music played during the Superbowl, raising money for charity to benefit Wisconsin public schools via their single "Oh, Wisconsin!", opening for Big Boi, and performing for CNN and MTV at SXSW. Their songs also played major roles in the soundtracks and promotional campaigns for the animated box office success Rango, and the spring horror film and series relaunch, Scream 4.
Locksley will look to build upon this momentum by hitting the road to visit with their steadily growing national fan base. Initial tour dates including shows with Fountains of Wayne and Kate Voegle are below.
