Clutch have released a three song MP3 sampler of live material from Clutch and The Bakerton Group from the Bonnaroo festival as the band announces their upcoming tour with Black Label Society and the kick off a reissue campaign. CLUTCH announced they will share the stage with hard rock acts Black Label Society and Children of Bodom on the 37 date "Bezerkacircus North American Tour" this Fall. Clutch will perform as direct support to Zakk Wylde's longtime band on almost 2 dozen of the concerts which kick off in Vancouver on September 22nd and finish up the weekend before Thanksgiving in San Francisco.
"Clutch's recent hard-nose work ethic is unparalled by today's standard rock acts. The past 12-18 months have been the busiest time period of Clutch," stated label manager Jon Nardachone, referring to Clutch's THREE Bonnaroo sets, played within 24 hours in the smoldering 100 heat on the June 11th and 12th weekend. Nardachone adds "They feed off the energy of the greatest diehard fans in the world. We all wonder how they get up for it night after night after night, but as I witnessed 10,000+ rock & roll crazies simultaneously chanting 'Bang Bang Bang Bang! Vamanos! Vamanos!' in the middle of the Tennessee night, it all makes sense."
If you were not at Bonnaroo don't worry, you can still download a three song MP3 sampler of live material from Clutch and The Bakerton Group, compliments of Weathermaker Music but hurry up! The free download will not last long. Grab it here
Weathermaker has announced July 20th as the official release date for the first of three 2010 re-issues from the band's DRT years.
