Pearl Jam and Abramorama are proud to announce the Gigaton Listening Experience – a special, one night only audio-visual event in 200+ Dolby Atmos equipped theaters around the world on March 25th, 2020.

The immersive event takes over the big screen just two days before the release of Pearl Jam’s anxiously awaited new album, Gigaton [Monkeywrench / Republic Records], on March 27th, 2020.

The Gigaton Listening Experience includes a playback of the entire album in Dolby Atmos. This listening experience will give Pearl Jam fans the opportunity to hear the album in a completely different way.

“It’s truly a unique way to experience this album,” explains Gigaton producer Josh Evans. “I’m excited for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of these songs and performances.”

The Gigaton Listening Experience will be enhanced with a choice set of visuals curated and created by Evolve, the filmmaker and artist behind the music video for the first single “Dance of the Clairvoyants.”

Maintaining a longstanding creative relationship, Abramorama powers these events worldwide. This marks Pearl Jam’s fourth theatrical collaboration with Abramorama following 2007’s Imagine in Cornice directed by Danny Clinch, 2011’s Pearl Jam Twenty directed by Cameron Crowe, and 2017’s Let’s Play Two also helmed by Clinch.

Pearl Jam have shared two singles in advance of their upcoming album “Gigaton” thus far: “Superblood Wolfmoon” and “Dance of the Clairvoyants.”

As previously announced, Pearl Jam will release their much-anticipated eleventh studio album, Gigaton, on Monkeywrench Records / Republic Records on March 27th, 2020 in the US. Internationally, the album will be released and distributed by Universal Music Group.

Produced by Josh Evans and Pearl Jam, Gigaton marks the band’s first studio album since GRAMMY award-winning, Lightning Bolt, which was released on October 15th, 2013.

Tickets are on sale now.

Pearl Jam will release their much-anticipated eleventh studio album, Gigaton, on Monkeywrench Records / Republic Records on March 27, 2020. Internationally, the album will be released and distributed by Universal Music Group. Produced by Josh Evans and Pearl Jam, Gigaton marks the band’s first studio album since GRAMMY award-winning Lightning Bolt, which was released on October 15, 2013.

Gigaton is available for pre-order now. The first single, “Dance of the Clairvoyants”, will be released in the coming weeks.

“Making this record was a long journey,” explains Mike McCready. “It was emotionally dark and confusing at times, but also an exciting and experimental road map to musical redemption. Collaborating with my bandmates on Gigaton ultimately gave me greater love, awareness and knowledge of the need for human connection in these times.”

In support of Gigaton, Pearl Jam will embark on their first leg of North American tour dates in March and April. The 16-date tour kicks-off on March 18th, 2020 in Toronto and wraps with a two-date stint in Oakland April 18-19, 2020.

Pearl Jam’s North American tour is in addition to the band’s previously announced European summer tour. Full details at their official website.

2020 officially marks 30 years of Pearl Jam performing live. Eleven studio albums, hundreds of unique live performances and official live concert bootleg releases later, the band continues to be critically acclaimed and commercially successful with over 85 million albums sold worldwide and a 2017 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
