Korpiklaani announce UK tour

KORPIKLAANI have announced a UK tour!

Set for March next year, the tour will see the Finnish folk metallers touring across the UK for a string of eight headline shows, as part of their ongoing Land Of A Thousand Drinks world tour! The final performance is set to take place at Hammerfest UK. Support on the tour will come from Nuclear Blast label mates BURNING WITCHES.

Alongside the announcement of the UK tour dates, the band have released a new music video for new song Jägermeister, which was shot at their recent New York show. The video was directed by Vicente Cordero, with production by Industrialism Films.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, frontman Jonne says, “as our recent North American tour began, we were discussing making a new video and Jyrki (THE 69 EYES) recommended Vicente and he was a perfect fit. At the time we did not even know what song to use and then we remembered we never released Jägermeister as this was recorded during the Manala sessions. We contacted Vicente and found out that he had free time the day we had our last show in New York. He flew out to NY, met us at the PlayStation Theater and then filmed around Times Square, backstage and during the show. Now it is time for your favourite medicine, perfect to warm up the cold winter days and get you in that party mood! Come and drink with us!”
