Trivium announce ‘A Light Or A Distant Mirror’ livestream

TRIVIUM have announced a special livestream!

Titled A Light Or A Distant Mirror, the upcoming livestream will showcase the American metal titans performing their first live show since the April 2020 release of their new album What The Dead Men Say. The livestream will kick off at 20:00 BST on July 10th and tickets for the livestream can be purchased here.

The livestream will be a brand new production and the arena-style visual show will stream globally from Full Sail Live, the state of the art event and broadcast arena at Full Sail University in the band’s hometown of Orlando, Florida. TRIVIUM will debut a new stage show that is cohesive with new album visuals and will perform songs from the new album onstage for the first time. Pre-show festivities will kick off at 20:00 BST (3pm EST) and will feature event host Terry Bezer of the Mosh Talks show on Knotfest.com who will lead viewers through interviews, clips from pre-production week, and an opening support slot from Reading, England’s SYLOSIS.

“We had to get creative when we heard there was no touring this summer,” the band explains. “We held off on the Zoom concerts and asked our creative/production team to come up with the biggest real-time live metal streaming event of the summer and what we now have to present to you is our show called A Light or a Distant Mirror. This performance will be 100% live and is not pre-taped. We will have a brand new epic stage set and lights, and we will bring it 100 percent. We are thankful to our friends at Full Sail University, who are providing us a first class performance arena and the Maestro broadcast team for streaming our show to the corners of the earth! We hope you can join us.”

“Hosting this virtual concert with TRIVIUM is a true full circle moment for us on numerous levels,” said Jay Noble, Full Sail University’s VP of Alumni & Event Production. “Before its release, the album What The Dead Men Say was recorded on campus in our flagship professional recording studio, the Audio Temple, with Course Director Darren Schneider serving as a Recording Engineer. That experience allowed us to welcome home Full Sail graduate and TRIVIUM guitarist, Corey Beaulieu, alongside the entire band including lead guitar and vocalist, Matt Heafy, who can recall recording at Full Sail during his teen years. Through our latest collaboration with TRIVIUM, we are excited to bring this unique livestreamed musical experience to TRIVIUM fans, our university community, and audiences around the globe, during a time when music is needed most.”

What the Dead Men Say is out now via Roadrunner Records. Be sure to check out our feature on the band here!
