Enslaved announce ‘Cinematic Summer Tour’ livestreams
ENSLAVED have announced a special series of livestreams!
Titled Cinematic Summer Tour, the series of livestreams will feature the Norwegian progressive black metal band joining forces with three festivals to present fans with three different shows.
The first livestream, on July 30th, will start with a Chronicles Of The Northbound show in cooperation with Roadburn. Fans will be invited by the festival to choose their favourite ENSLAVED songs to create a career spanning set. The second show, on August 20th, will be a Below The Lights set presented by Beyond The Gates Festival and the third and final livestream, on September 30th, will feature the band ending their virtual tour at Summer Breeze Festival with a presentation of their new album in its entirety; Utgard – The Journey Within.
All three shows will be free of charge and there will be a donation option and special merch for the Cinematic Summer Tour.
Speaking about the series of livestreams, guitarist Ivar Bjørnson says, “‘we must stick apart’ is a proverb of Discordianism (a religion I might or might not have just made up) that might fit the situation we are all in now. We are all isolated in various degrees; and we all miss live music. So, we have stuck apart and with our fantastic team of super-people in management, label and booking, plus three of our best friends who happen to be the very creme de la creme of European Festivals; we are now able to present this digital festival-tour. We are already hard at work preparing sets and shows that will make this one for the (e-)books. Thank you for your support, faith in us and patience – to have fans like you is an absolute privilege. See you in the ether!”
Utgard is scheduled to be released in Autumn this year via Nuclear Blast Records.
