Platinum-selling recording group Flyleaf will embark on a North American tour with rock bands Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace, kicking off January 15th in Peoria, IL.
Flyleaf is touring in support of their latest album, Memento Mori, which was released November 10th on A&M/Octone records.
The video for Memento Mori's first single - the urgent, impassioned "Again,"- has just entered the Elite 8 on MTVU and Fuse.

While at radio,"Again" is climbing the Active and Modern Rock radio charts and has been in the Top 15 since it's release. Memento Mori debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200.
Watch "Again" video:
Flyleaf celebrated the release of Memento Mori with a performance on late-night talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! on October 28th and a headlining US tour of intimate venues across the country this fall.
Memento Mori is the follow-up to the Texas five-piece's 2005 self-titled debut. On this newest offering, the band once again worked with producer Howard Benson, who worked with Flyleaf on their platinum-selling debut is known for his previous endeavors with My Chemical Romance and The All-American Rejects.
The resulting record is a compelling blend of bold guitars and soaring melodies, anchored by lead signer Lacey's honest, emotional lyrics and fervent vocals.
USA Today says; "The release is full of potent imagery that transcends clichés" and Alternative Press says; "Momento Mori is a good album, with the awesome "Set Apart This Dream," and "Again" shining with their anthemic choruses and deft use of pop melody."
FLYLEAF is Lacey (lead vocals,) Sameer Bhattacharya (guitar,) Jared Hartman (guitar,) Pat Seals (bass) and James Culpepper (drums.)

im really loving the new cd!!! flyleaf is amazing, and i really respect lacey and her witness for Christ. i was hoping to go to a show, but the closest one is 8-9 hours away! :/
you guys really need to have a show closer to mississippi..that would be the best show of my life! you don't even understand! flyleaf, three days grace, and breaking benjamin! come on man that is a dream show!!! i will check this web site everyday until there is a show closer to mississippi..even just like a 6 hour drive that's way better than 11!
I am inlove with flyleaf. Even though i respect their music and have followed lacey before she was even with flyleaf, her second cd is a little soft for me. she started off with some heavy screaming rock and now is going more towards the "needs of mainstream." they need to keep creating music that they started off making and not sink down to pop standards. i will always love and support flyleaf. hopefully their next cd will improve.
omg please guys could you guys please come to australia. haha i assure u at least 500 people haha even better come to my town. but seriously tho, please go to sydney or brisbane in australia, we all went nuts when we heard you guys were going on tour, then three days grace and breaking benjamin just made it 10 times better and then ur probably likely to get a huge crowd for yas in sydney.
