Mansfield rockers Violent Soho are “frigin fired up” to announce their next national tour, which will see them play their biggest headline shows yet in support of their latest album WACO later this year.
Violent Soho have already played a stack of sold-out shows since WACO‘s release, but they’re heading out on the road again this October and November to play all-ages shows in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, all supported by Tasmania’s Luca Brasi, Perth outfit Tired Lion and California punks The Bronx.
“We are truly honoured to have The Bronx on board for these shows,” Violent Soho say. “There is no band in the world that can put on such a high energy performance the way that these guys do. As a band, we have always looked up to them a hell of a lot.
“Our friendship goes back over 10 years so to have our big Bros from the USA come all the way across the Pacific to play with us again means the world.
“Luca Brasi can also be held in the same esteem. For us, they are probably Australia’s best punk rock band by a long shot. And to have this line up complimented by such a class act as Tired Lion just puts the icing on the cake for what is going to be one epic fucking tour. Really, we are just so stoked!”
WACO, the follow-up to 2013’s Hungry Ghost, has already spawned the massive sings Like Soda, Viceroy, So Sentimental (below) and Blanket. Violent Soho toured the album around the country in May, and yesterday blessed fans with this epic WACO Tour mini-documentary.
