July 30, 2012, 12 years ago
Heavy/doom metal progenitors SAINT VITUS have announced an extensive US tour. Starting on September 14th in Little Rock, AK, the ScionAV–sponsored tour runs for five weeks ending in San Antonio, TX on October 19th.
Support will come from WEEDEATER and SOURVEIN. Additionally Saint Vitus joins DOWN at the Best Buy Theater in New York City on September 28th.
A full list of tour dates can be found below.
Band founder and chief songwriter, Dave Chandler, comments: “We're stoked to destroy America again, the last US headlining tour was in 1993. This time we'll be playing Lillie as well as fan favorites and some old surprises. So leave your ear plugs at home and come bleed with us.”
The band is touring in support of their latest album Lillie: F-65. The album, their first in 17 years, reunites the unmistakable guitar playing of co-founder Dave Chandler with the deeply resonate vocals of hard rock legend Scott “Wino” Weinrich.
