Blameshift will be hitting the road with 12 Stones, Digital Summer and Throwing Gravity next month for a North American tour.The trek is set to kick off on July 6th in Merriam, KS and will come to a close a month later on August 7th in Marietta, GA.
Amidst the tour, Blameshift will break off for two dates in Pecatonica, IL at Rock'n the Valley 2012 at the Winnebago Fairgrounds. These two festival dates also feature Skid Row, Warrant, Trixter, and more.
"We're stoked that 12 Stones is bringing us with them on their upcoming album release tour. We're honored and excited to celebrate a new release with such a great band," states guitarist Tim Barbour. "We're looking forward to seeing all of our loyal fans when we rock their city with 12 Stones."
BLAMESHIFT's debut EP, The Black Rose, was released in February 2011 and produced by Erik Ron (VersaEmerge, Good Charlotte, Panic! at the Disco). The EP was fully funded by the bands diehard fans through Kickstarter.com. Over 75 related music media outlets, including Taco Bell and Sullen Clothing, supported the bands release, landing them thousands of new Facebook likes and spreading the music further than they thought possible.
