This
September, California avant-garde metal band STOLEN BABIES will
be touring the United States with co-headliners Devin Townsend Project, Katatonia,
and special guests Paradise Lost as part of the “Epic Kings
& Idols Tour” (DTP and Katatonia will
alternate in headlining each show). The tour kicks-off in Seattle, WA at Studio
7 on September 4, 2012 and travels throughout the United States until September
24th when it comes to a close in Baltimore, MD at Rams Head
Live. The “Epic Kings & Idols Tour” VIP pre-sale begins Wednesday, June 6th;
tickets will be available to the general public starting Thursday, June 7th.
“We're very
excited about being on this tour with such a great line-up,” states STOLEN
BABIES drummer Gil Sharone. “It's the perfect way to start the touring
cycle for our new album that will be released later this year with No Comment
Records.”
STOLEN
BABIES will
also perform select shows this summer before the “Epic Kings & Idols Tour”
begins, including a special show with Dredg at The Roxy in
West Hollywood, CA, the “Gothic Theatre Block Party” in Englewood, CO at Moe’s,
and a special headline show at The Metro in Salt Lake City, UT.
Having
theatrical roots, STOLEN BABIES formed from a 12+ member
performance troupe named The Fratellis. Horns blared, oversized dolls jumped
out of toy boxes, squabbles were had, and babies were stolen, turned into flies
and fed to giant spiders. Eventually, the blundering theatrics came to an end,
but the four stuck together to create more emotionally focused songs with a new
band name taken from one of the skits entitled, "Stolen Babies",
performed by their old incarnation. STOLEN BABIES’musical style is
a cauldron of ideas that serves up a wonderful variety of vibrant styles meshed
together into a pure chaotic frenzy—and it works. The band’s most recent
release, There Be Squabbles Ahead, was released to positive
reviews in 2006 with The End Records/No Comment Records.
