If the title “Where We Are” looks familiar, that’s because it’s also the name of One Direction’s2014 stadium tour, the first dates of which were revealed last week. The group’s 2013 North American tour, which kicks off on June 13, will include amassive partnership with Nabisco, with brands like Chips Ahoy, Oreo, Trident and Ritz all sponsoring the live run.

Although “This Is Us” will not have a proper soundtrack, the band is expected to release a new album later this year or in early 2014 at the latest. Both of the group’s first two albums, “Up All Night” and “Take Me Home,” topped the Billboard 200 chart in 2012.
