"With this new tour we are showing the newer sound of Laika and exposing fans to true Winnipeg melodic death metal," states vocalist Jordan Dorge. "We have enlisted Ronnie Ladobruk to join us on the journey out west taking over guitar duties. If this name sounds familiar, you may know him from this years Canada's Got Talent!
