New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Madchild just wrapped up a run of sold-out shows with
Swollen Members in Australia, but he will have no time to rest as his new album "Switched On" drops this week. To celebrate the release of his new album, Madchild has released a video blog discussing the making of his new album online at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wirhaZPTqM.
Madchild will be touring in support of "Switched On" on the road with Insane Clown Posse, Mushroomhead, Da Mafia 6ix and Jellyroll, before heading out for a series of one-off Halloween shows with Necro in California and Immortal Technique in Colorado.
Madchild has refused to rest since becoming a solo artist. After many years of success with Swollen Members, Madchild branched out creatively to become a solo artist and was rewarded with the highest chart position of his career as "Dope Sick" debuted at #3 and his sophomore effort "Lawn Mower Man" debuted at #2 on the Canadian Billboard Top 200 and #7 on the US Heatseekers chart.
Madchild wasted no time taking to the road on a sold-out Canadian tour alongside Tech N9ne, which he immediately followed-up with a 40-date headlining tour across the country performing to packed venues. He's relentlessly toured for the past few years earning fans in every city on tours with La Coka Nostra, Tech N9NE, Redman, and others. Madchild capped off an amazing year with a Juno Award nomination for "Dope Sick" in the category of "Rap Recording of the Year", as well as nominations for a
Sirius XFM Indie Award and a Canadian Independent
Music Award. With a new album and tour dates through the end of the year, 2014 is poised to be Madchild's most successful year yet.
Machild's "Switched On" is available with a limited edition t-shirt, ashtray, coffee mug, and signed 8x10 online at https://www.shopbenchmark.com/battleaxe/.
