For Today also on the bill, this package is stacked! All great bands & all great friends of ours. I believe this will be one of 2016's most exciting tours. See ya there!"
Dave Stephens of
We Came As Romans adds, "After years of talking about doing a run together, I'm glad
Memphis May Fire and us have finally made it happen. We've been close with the other bands on the tour since the beginning of our careers, and I have no doubt it will be nothing but an amazing time. Get your tickets quick cause this is a tour you won't want to miss!"
Memphis May Fire have been hard at work on the follow up to their massively successful 2014 Rise Records LP, 'Unconditional,' which debuted at #4 on Billboard's Top 200 and #1 on the Alternative Albums chart.
For the new album, the band has enlisted producer Matt Good (From First To Last, Blessthefall, The Word Alive) with Cameron Mizell (For All Those Sleeping, Myka Relocate, Sleeping With Sirens) handling vocal production duties.
The forthcoming effort was recently selected as one of the 'Most Anticipated Albums' of 2016 by the editors of Alternative Press.
Starting this month, the Nashville, TN-based rockers will serve as direct support on Killswitch Engage's headline tour. Offering additional support is 36 Crazyfists & Toothgrinder. Tickets for those shows are on sale now.
