In support of their acclaimed seventh LP, VII, Sacramento, California’s long-running dark hardcore quintet Will Haven will begin their first widespread tour on the album next week.

Following their hometown release show for VII, Will Haven now prepares to assault the Western US on the Carpe Diem/Vll Tour which will see the band performing their Carpe Diem album in its entirety, in addition to new material from VII. The tour runs from August 24 through 31, shows in California, Nevada, and Utah, including a set at Crucialfest in Salt Lake City on August 26th alongside Whores, Portrayal Of Guilt, Bongzilla, Cloakroom, and many others, and will see the band’s original bassist Mike Martin returning to the lineup for the shows.

Following the tour, Will Haven will play Furnace Fest in Birmingham on September 23 alongside Hatebreed, Turnstile, Bane, Youth Of Today, Judge, Terror, Strife, and dozens more, and in October, the band will return to the UK, Belgium, and France for a run of tour dates.
