Tom Petty 2014

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have announced a new album, Hypnotic Eye, which is set for release July 29, and there is incentive for fans to pre-order the effort. Those who do, or become a member of the group’s Highway Companions Club will receive downloads of five tracks from the album in advance of the release date. Three of those tracks will be delivered immediately beginning today with the fourth one being delivered on June 24 and the fifth released on July 15. Tracks available now include “American Dream Plan B” and “U Get Me High,” which went to radio this morning.

Petty hails from Gainesville, Floriday and back in 2006, he was given a key to the city as the mayor dedicated the day to him. He said that he still finds inspiration from his days living in Gainesville.

While Gainesvile isn’t on this leg of tour dates, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers will take out Steve Winwood as an opener. Dates start August 3 in San Diego, and run through October 10 in Los Angeles.
