Japanese alternative rock band One OK Rock are supporting 5 Seconds Of Summer on the Aussie lads' Sounds Live Feels Tour and frontman Taka sat down for an interview with WashingtonTimes.com to talk about the high-profile opening spot. 

When asked how they came to be added to the bill, Taka explained that producer John Feldmann was the one who hooked it up:

"Our producer from our last album, John Feldmann, introduced us to them. They’re very nice people. It should be great."

He added: "The 5 Seconds of Summer tour is our first stadium tour in the U.S. We have played stadiums at home, but to be in a America on a stage this big is exciting. Wow. Plus this tour is special because it is the first time we had an album out on a major U.S. record label."
