 BLUES PILLS Wrap Up Successful European Headline Tour; Live Acoustic In-Store Performance From Hamburg Online

The blues rock sensation Blues Pills recently wrapped their hugely successful European headline tour with The Vintage Caravan and The Arkanes. They have checked in with the following update:

"The tour is over and it's a bummer. We had such a great and exciting time. All you beautiful people who came to our shows have over and over again blown our minds. This much love we never could have expected. We are forever thankful. All our love back to you guys. Also big thanks to The Vintage Caravan and The Arkanes, our soundguy and TM Sam and our merch dude Mr Big Daddy Philipp. Also Thanks to our driver Jorge who did a killer job. And our friends from the band The Wedge who joined the party in our last show in Frankfurt. See you all very soon and all the best until we come back.

Footage of Blues Pills performing "No Hope Left For Me" live acoustic in Hamburg, Germany at Saturn is available below:

The self-titled debut album Blues Pills entered the German Media Control Charts at #4, marking the first newcomer band signed to Nuclear Blast to crack the Top 10 in Germany!  Furthermore they could reach position #2 on the charts of German biggest media store Media Markt.

Commented the band: "BAAAM!! Toping the Chaaarts! We are so happy to say our album charted at #4 in Germany. We simply don't know what to say, words can't even express how we feel. Thank you for the love and support Germany! We love you back."

Nuclear Blast owner Markus Staiger adds: "I knew they were on to something really big when i first heard Blues Pills back in October 2012. It made me shiver, it was pure magic. The authenticity they've got, the power they transport and said magic they create can't be put in words. It's pretty much the most beautiful and timeless music - it touches you. We at Nuclear Blast are extremely proud that both the band's and our hard work has paid off! I want to say a huge THANK YOU to the entire team, all the supporters, the booking agencies and of course the band's management for making this one a real pleasant and exciting campaign . From here on to the stars - BLUES PILLS ARE HERE TO STAY!"
