July 5, 2011, 13 years ago
Chicago's SOiL, along with co-headliners PUDDLE OF MUDD, will embark on a full UK tour, beginning this October 14th in London.
Soil returns to the UK with their original lead singer and founding member Ryan McCombs (on loan from the band DROWNING POOL) and fellow founding members Tim King (bass) and Adam Zadel (lead guitar). For Puddle Of Mudd, these upcoming shows will be the first time the band has toured the UK since 2002.
"The UK has always been a true home for Soil" states bassist Tim King. "To also have Ryan (McCombs) singing and to be sharing the stage with Puddle Of Mudd will be something special for both us and the fans.”
“After the fantastic reception we got at Download this year, we’re excited to be coming back for our first proper UK run in years,” commented Puddle Of Mudd lead guitarist Paul Phillips. “We played a bunch of shows back in the day with SOiL so it’s gonna be nice to be on the road with them for this run.”Soil has confirmed a setlist comprised of select cuts from the Scars and Re.de.fine albums, along with a surprise song from the debut Throttle Junkies release. The band’s breakthrough album Scars (featuring the hits 'Halo' and 'Unreal') was released September 11, 2001, making 2011 the 10th anniversary of the release.
Supporting on the tour will be UK rockers DEAR SUPERSTAR, along with G.U. MEDICINE.
