Civic Tour Fan Involvement
For 2017, OneRepublic took the all-new Honda Civic Type R and 2017 Honda Rebel motorcycle to the next level by designing their very own special-edition vehicles for Honda Civic Tour. These custom, autographed rides are joining the band on the road this summer, and fans can catch them at each stop of the 2017 Honda Civic Tour. The OneRepublic custom Civic Type R – the most powerful production Honda ever sold in the US –  is inspired by the band's love of modern architecture and clean design. The red accents, mixed with a combination of gloss and matte black, complete this one-of-a-kind vehicle.
Throughout the duration of the tour, fans will have the opportunity to enter in the Honda Civic Tour Sweepstakes for a chance to win multiple experiences, including the "Which Civic R You?" sweepstakes that highlights the Civic line up, noting "there is a Civic out there for everyone." One lucky winner will get to drive home in their choice of a brand new 2017 Honda Civic Sedan, Coupe, Hatchback, Si or Type R. Civic Tour fans also will have the opportunity to cruise away on a Honda Rebel motorcycle, plus the chance to fly out to Los Angeles to see OneRepublic live on the Civic Tour courtesy of Honda Financial Services. For complete rules and to enter online, please visit www.HondaCivicTour.com.

Los Angeles-based Fitz and The Tantrums have quickly grown from independent upstarts to bonafide hitmakers. Their current album – titled Fitz and The Tantrums (Elektra) – was released last summer and features their biggest hit to date, "HandClap." The RIAA-certified Gold single has already gone top 5 on both the Hot AC and Alternative Radio charts, and is currently ascending the Top 40 Radio charts. Fitz and The Tantrums' eponymous album follows their breakout major label debut, 2013's More Than Just A Dream, which featured back-to-back #1 Alternative Radio singles in the RIAA-certified Platinum "The Walker" and the RIAA-certified Gold "Out Of My League."

James Arthur 
James Arthur was crowned the winner of The X Factor U.K.'s ninth season in 2012. His debut single "Impossible" became the biggest X Factor winner's song of all time, selling more than 1 million downloads and topping charts for several weeks. The buzz around the Middlesbrough-born singer was different to previous champions. He was regarded as the show's first credible artist; James not only possessed showman-like qualities with an incredible, distinctive voice, but he could back up his stage presence with natural song-writing ability. Following two years away from the spotlight, James returned last fall with his single "Say You Won't Let Go." The song shot straight to #1 in his native U.K., where it remained for 3 consecutive weeks. Last fall, James released his second album entitled Back From The Edge, which again went straight to #1 in the U.K. "Say You Won't Let Go" has topped iTunes charts in more than 20 countries and has since gone on to sell more than 3 million downloads, more than 350 million streams at Spotify, and a quarter of a billion total views at Vevo/YouTube around the globe.  For more information please visit www.jamesarthurofficial.com.
