The Format tour

Experience Live Indie Pop with TicketPurchase.com

Performer Information

The Format is an indie pop and alternative rock band from Phoenix, Arizona — and The Format tour is a must for fans who love big hooks, lush arrangements, and heartfelt storytelling. Formed in 2002 by Nate Ruess and Sam Means, they quickly earned a devoted following for melodic, emotionally resonant songs that blend layered harmonies with brass and orchestral flourishes. Their debut, Interventions + Lullabies (2003), connected in indie circles, while Dog Problems (2006) cemented their reputation for ambitious, deeply crafted songwriting.

Across their catalog, The Format shaped a lane in indie pop that influenced a wave of 2000s alternative acts. After a hiatus beginning in 2008, the duo reunited in 2020 for sold-out shows that renewed excitement around their music. Fans still gravitate to The Format tickets the moment new dates appear, eager to experience the band’s musicianship and sing-along moments live.

Highlights include the critically acclaimed Dog Problems, early EPs that showcased their narrative-driven style, and Live at the Mayan Theatre (2020), captured during their reunion. Their shows typically land in theaters and large clubs — the perfect setting for rich arrangements, dynamic vocals, and the communal energy that defines their performances.

Their live show style blends faithful renditions of studio tracks with dynamic energy and engaging crowd interaction. With expanded players on horns and strings, those lush arrangements feel big, bright, and immediate in theaters and large clubs.

Formed in 2002 in Phoenix, The Format quickly built a cult following with Interventions + Lullabies and reached a creative peak with the critically acclaimed Dog Problems.
