Andrew W.K. Announces "The Human Party Machine Solo Tour"!

The self proclaimed King Of Partying, Andrew W.K., has announced plans to embark on his first-ever American solo tour, "The Human Party Machine". During this spring/summer jaunt, W.K. will be armed with only a microphone, a keyboard, and the will to survive as he brings his party to intimate club and bar settings across the country.

"“I’m truly excited and also terrified by what will happen at these shows",” proclaims W.K. “"It’s designed for maximum chaos and to put us as close to the abyss as possible. But we’re going to survive and thrive, because we’ll be in it together, arm-in-arm and heart-to-heart, becoming a human party machine made of blood, love, and courage. Get your friends together and let’s fucking do this!”"

The shows will find W.K. performing his fan-favorite party anthems, including "“Party Hard",” "“We Want Fun",” "“Long Live The Party",” "“I Get Wet",” "“You Will Remember Tonight",” and more.

On and off the stage, Andrew W.K. has maintained a furious delivery, a charismatic charm, and an energized enthusiasm that has kept his audience growing and excited. In recent years, W.K. has turned his positive message into motivational lectures at such Ivy League universities as Harvard and Yale, as well as speaking at a national My Little Pony convention this past fall.

Andrew W.K. (The King Of Partying) Is Now The Face Of PLAYTEX's "Fresh + Sexy"

This is hilarious! Energizer Personal Care has announced that Andrew W.K., the King Of Partying, is their official spokesperson to promote Fresh + Sexy Wipes by Playtex. W.K. will join with Playtex to launch their bold NEW ridiculous product. As W.K. explains, "whether you just finished rocking a packed club or have an intimate encounter after a busy day, this product will make couples feel brand NEW. Fresh + Sexy Wipes were specially designed to help couples feel confidently clean, before and after they engage in sexual activity"!”

On their choice of W.K. as spokesperson for Fresh + Sexy Wipes, Playtex said in an official statement: "This exciting NEW product required the help of someone who could embody the brand's playful yet bold campaign; someone who could party hard, but still be clean when it counted. Andrew W.K. is that someone and we are thrilled to have him on board with us for Fresh + Sexy Wipes".”

In addition, the duo has collaborated on a special Andrew W.K. Sensory Kit on behalf of Playtex for Fresh + Sexy Wipes. This exclusive kit will only be sent to 100 hand-picked recipients among the media, W.K.'s own family of partiers, and additional friends of the brand. It will offer a sensual experience, dramatically hitting all five of the recipients’ senses from the packaging to content inside.

Look for W.K. and Playtex to appear together during the official Fresh + Sexy Party at SXSW Interactive. Taking place on Saturday, March 9th at VICELAND (401 East Cesar Chavez Street, Austin, Texas), W.K. will host The Fresh + Sexy Black Booth Confessional Party, an event that includes free product (while supplies last), free drinks, and awesome live music, including a special performance from Andrew W.K. himself. As master of ceremonies and the Playtex brand ambassador, W.K. will also invite people to come clean in a one-of-a-kind confessional booth, a setting to tell stories about those exciting and spontaneous moments where they could have used Fresh + Sexy Wipes.
