FROM NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS:
EPICA and ELUVEITIE Partner With Revolver Magazine For North American Co-Headlining Tour This Fall!
This fall, Dutch symphonic metal titans Epica and Swiss folk metallers Eluveitie will join forces to co-headline across North America. This trek, sponsored by REVOLVER Magazine also has Canada’s The Agonist supporting on all dates. Please see below for all tour dates and VIP ticketing information.
EPICA frontwoman Simone Simons says the following about the upcoming tour: “We are ecstatic to finally return to North America. It is time to nurture our long-distance relationship with our fans over in North America. We'll have a wonderful time together and will perform songs spanning our entire discography. You guys better be ready for us.”
This will mark EPICA’s long-awaited return to North America after the band’s tour with Machine Head late 2014 got cancelled. It will also be the group’s first North American run in support of their highly acclaimed latest album, The Quantum Enigma, which hit the charts all over Europe and beyond.
ELUVEITIE’s lead vocalist Chrigel Glanzmann further states: ”We're 8 months into the ‘Origins’ World Tour now and far from getting tired! We can't wait to finally return to the USA and Canada; especially because we'll return alongside the mighty EPICA! By Toutatis, this is gonna be fucking awesome!"
This tour also marks ELUVEITIE’s second tour in support of their chart-topping album, Origins.
