HALESTORM announce Autumn headline UK tour Print E-mail
Monday, 30 April 2012 15:24

Halestorm are thrilled to announce a UK headline tour for the Autumn in support of their chart-topping new album, 'THE STRANGE CASE OF...'

Halestorm

 

The new dates will follow a U.S. headline tour, high profile festival appearances (including the Download Festival on June 9), and a series of support slots alongside Avenged Sevenfold and Slash.

 

'THE STRANGE CASE OF' is shaping up as Halestorm's breakthrough release. The album just debuted at #1 on Billboard's Hard Rock Albums chart, while also making a top 15 entry onto the overall Billboard 200. In its first week of sales in the UK, the album saw a 3000% uplift on their previous release's first week.

 

Furthermore, the album's electrifying first single, 'Love Bites (So Do I)', is proving the Pennsylvania-based band's fastest rising single thus far, having now ascended to the top 5 at Active Rock radio outlets nationwide across the USA.

 

UK dates are as follows:
