Colin Blunstone touring for Zombies doc ‘Hung up on a Dream’

Hung Up on a Dream, the new documentary about baroque psych greats The Zombies, is making its way around the country, screening in theaters now with more to come. To promote the film, Zombies frontman Colin Blunstone will be touring with it, along with director Robert Schwartzman (who also fronts ’00-era alt-rock band Rooney). After the screenings, they’ll do a Q&A and then Blunstone will play an acoustic set backed by Rooney.

The tour kicks off in NYC on July 9 at Gramercy Theatre and then hits Boston, DC, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Tickets are on venue presale now and go on sale to the general public on Thursday, May 22 at 10 AM local time. All dates are below.

Here’s the synopsis for Hung Up on a Dream: “In their first ever feature documentary nearly sixty years after they met as teenagers before the British Invasion music scene, THE ZOMBIES tell their story of navigating the tumultuous music industry over the decades and making one of the most influential albums of all time, Odessey and Oracle. ‘She’s Not There’ made them the first British band after The Beatles to reach #1 in the US. After years of touring and many missteps in the ’60s, sadly the band missed out on their biggest moment yet, when ‘Time of the Season’ hit #1 and became a global success, inspiring new generations each year. The band looks back on their journey, where true friendship led them to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.”

Watch the trailer below.

The film is screening without Colin Blunstone, too, and all cities and theaters are here.
