February 22, 2016, 8 years ago
Pop Evil have announced their headlining Canadian tour, which will kick off on March 27th in Kamloops, BC. Pop Evil released UP on August 21st, 2015 and saw the release land at #2 on the Billboard Canadian Indie Chart the week of release. The LP reached #5 on the Rock Album Chart and #22 on the Canadian Top 200 Chart.
The group is very excited to be finally headlining their own full Canadian tour. It’s a big milestone for them as a band especially for vocalist Leigh Kakaty who was raised in Kingston and is a proud dual citizen of both Canada and the US.
Leigh had this to say: “I'm stoked to be going back to Canada for a headline run. Being from Kingston Ontario, it's always humbling to be back in the country where I was born playing for our Canadian faithful. It's incredible to see how fast the band has grown north of the border and we can't wait to add to the momentum during this next Canadian Tour.”
