Tour News: Joe Bonamassa, Ryan Hamilton and The Traitors, Make Them Suffer, Sworn Amongst, Uneven Structure, Vallenfyre, Belphegor

I think I’m right in saying this is the largest number of tour announcements we’ve ever had in our inbox after two days so I’m going to get on with it because this might take a while!

Joe Bonamassa

And who else could start off this list but the celebrated child prodigy, now blues virtuoso Joe Bonamassa. As the busiest man in this neck of the musical woods, he will hit many venues for the nth time accompanied by a hand-picked group of world-class musicians playing material from Blues of Desperation, plus classic Bonamassa tracks.

Ryan Hamilton and The Traitors

Along with releasing new single “Smarter” earlier this week, Ryan Hamilton and The Traitors will play eight dates across the UK in mid- to late August. The band promise the shows will be “as close to a drunken rock n’ roll show in a Texas saloon that folks can get in the UK. Drinks, music, friends, good vibes and good times all around.” That sounds like something we may pop along too!

Sworn Amongst

Having been championed by Metal Hammer, Kerrang and Scuzz TV along with compiling a new lineup comprised of new vocalist Darryl Jones, bassist Kieran Agnew and guitarist/vocalist Ashley Currie, it is safe to say Sworn Amongst are not going anywhere. Along with the news of the new lineup and a UK tour, the band also defy expectations with the release of new single “The Cleansing”. With this new heavy-hitter and Lotus Eater supporting on the following dates, this will be a good one!

  • 26th – Satan’s Hollow, Manchester

September

Uneven Structure (+Voyager)

This pairing will make a brilliant night out for the more progressively minded metalheads out there. With both bands coming off the back of stellar albums, this is a must see show, particularly with Uneven Structure playing their newest album La Partition in full on each of the six shows in October. You will be sorry you missed it!

Vallenfyre

Unfortunately, this is more of a European tour than a UK tour. By that I mean there are only 2 UK shows. Nevertheless, it will only be a matter of time before they come back around the UK in support of their third studio outing Fear Those Who Fear Him, in the meantime we’ll have to travel or twiddle our thumbs…

September

  • 10th – Boston Music Room, London
  • 11th – Rebellion, Manchester

Belphegor

And lastly but by absolutely no means leastly, we come to extreme metal outfit Belphegor who will embark on a short four-date jaunt across the UK this October on their “Death Black Metal Crusade” tour through Europe. Joining them on this run of dates are Deströyer666, Enthroned, Nervochaos and Nordjevel. If you’re looking for heavy, look no further!
