Symphonic groove metal band, TULIP, have released the video for their cover of "
Pray For Me" originally written and performed by The Weeknd/Kendrick Lamar.
"Pray For Me is just a great song, and when we first heard it, we thought it would lend itself well to a bouncy metal remix. The lyrics conveniently fit our life story as well" says the band.
In addition, the band has announced a North American summer tour with Swedish melodic-metal band EVERGREY. TULIP will kick off the tour on August 23rd in Los Angeles, Ca at The Satellite.
