Amorphis announce European tour
AMORPHIS have announced a headlining European tour!
Set for October and November, the tour will see the Finnish melodic death metal band touring across mainland Europe in support of their latest studio album, Halo, which was released in February last year.
Support for the tour comes from Iceland’s SÓLSTAFIR and Finland’s LOST SOCIETY. Tickets for the tour will be available from Friday, May 19th and can be purchased here.
Speaking about the tour, guitarist Esa Holopainen says, “we are happy to announce the second leg of the AMORPHIS Halo European tour which starts this October. This time we cover countries and cities where it was not possible for us to go last year. The tour line-up is absolutely great. We will bring along our Icelandic friends SÓLSTAFIR and our country fellows LOST SOCIETY. Looking forward to see our beloved fans again across EU.”
SÓLSTAFIR says, “since our debut show in Helsinki back in 2004, we have had a great love relationship with Finland, and discovering AMORPHIS a decade before with their great Tales From The Thousand Lakes album and watching them grow over the years, we are super pleased to hit the road with Finland’s finest metal act. This tour was written in the stars.”
And LOST SOCIETY‘s frontman Samy Elbanna concludes, “it’s been a long time coming – and now we are finally able to announce that we’ll be joining our brothers in AMORPHIS on their huge European tour! We can’t wait to visit a lot of places we’ve never been to before and to bring our massive #IfTheSkyCameDown show to you ALL. Get your tickets and prepare yourselves for LOST SOCIETY.”
