Beartooth, I Prevail, Killswitch Engage, and Parkway Drive are set to co-headline the “Summer of Loud” tour. The North American trek launches on June 21st in West Palm Beach, Florida, and runs through July 27th in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Devil Wears Prada and The Amity Affliction will support all dates, with rotating opening acts TX2, Kingdom of Giants, and Dark Divine on select shows.
Beartooth singer Caleb Shomo said in a press release: “‘Summer of Loud’ is gonna be a clinic in metalcore ass-whoopery, and it’s an absolute honor to be a part of this epic tour with such good company. Strap in for one of the most fun summer shows of your life.”
Added Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage: “This summer tour has shaped up to be a huge and exciting lineup. I am honored and stoked to be able to share the stage with such solid and killer bands. I feel a deep sense of purpose with this new album and to be able to play some of these songs on stages across the US and Canada. This is the tour of the summer!”
I Prevail’s Eric Vanlerberghe stated: “The Summer of Loud tour is about to be the best metal tour of the year. Where else can you see some of the best modern metal bands all on the same stage? It’s going to be a tour you don’t wanna miss.”
The tour will be donating $1 from each ticket sold to Living The Dream Foundation, non-profit foundation that helps children and young adults living with life-threatening illnesses stay positive, maintain hope, and appreciate every day, regardless of their affliction. Tickets are on sale now via Ticketmaster.
