Men lie, women lie.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis are ahead of the pack this year as they continue to travel the globe in support of their debut album “The Heist”. Last week the pair broke digital sales records by selling 5.56 million downloads of the hit song “Thrift Shop” over the past six months while also making it the fastest selling song of any genre in a 6 month calendar according to Neilsen Soundscan.

The Washington natives have been touring the summer festival circuit with appearances at festivals big and small such as Bonnaroo, Sasquatch, and Paid Dues. They will also be performing at this year’s Made in America festival in Philadelphia. They begin the next leg of their tour this fall starting on October 22nd in Portland, Oregon.
