AUGUST BURNS RED Announce Fall US Tour


Its been an impressive few weeks for metal juggernauts AUGUST BURNS RED. The band's long-awaited third album, Constellations (Solid State Records), debuted at #24 on the Billboard Top 200 the week of its release, and held strong in its second week, staying in the Top 50. Now, as the band wraps up its run of US headlining dates - a tour that has included sold-out shows in market after market (including Chicago's House of Blues), and impressive two-night stands in Pomona, CA and the band's hometown of Lancaster, PA - ABR is announcing a 29 date North American tour from September 5-October 18.
When the last round of AUGUST BURNS RED dates were announced, the band was poised to deliver one of the most anticipated releases in its genre. Now, Constellations is fulfilling that promise with both impressive sales and media praise - the band has been covered in Revolver, AP, Decibel, Outburn and more and is the cover feature in the July issue of HM, and many sources have declared it 'one of the top metal releases of the year.'
Joining AUGUST BURNS RED on these dates are THE ACACIA STRAIN, IMPENDING DOOM and an opener TBA.
