Twin Atlantic Announce Dates With Blink-182 and The Gaslight Anthem
06/11/2010
.
Twin Atlantic have been personally invited to support The Gaslight Anthem on their UK tour and have just been announced as support to Blink-182 on their UK dates in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Dublin. Sam McTrusty (vocals, guitar) said, "I think it's fair to say we are pretty shocked but really excited to have been picked to support blink-182 this summer. Like most rock fans who were 13 in 1999, I was a massive fan of the band and I grew up with them being a soundtrack to pretty much everything thereafter. At the risk of sounding cheesy but being completely honest it is a little bit of a dream come true scenario." Twin Atlantic will also be appearing at a string of festivals across Europe this summer, including the main stage of Rockness on 13 June, the main stage of the 2000 Trees festival on 17 July, and headlining the Red Bull Bedroom Jam stage of the Hevy Festival on 7 August. As a gift to fans, and to celebrate their massive summer shows, an exclusive Innerpartysystem remix of the 'Vivarium' mini-album track live favorite 'Human After All' plus a brand new video will be available to download from 21 June. The band also filmed a documentary for Scuzz TV in New York on their first US tour with Fall of Troy and Envy on the Coast. The hour-long show includes live footage of their show in Irving Plaza, and will first be broadcast on Scuzz TV in June.
