CANNIBAL CORPSE
Cannibal Corpse will be on tour this fall with Dark Funeral, Immolation, and Black Anvil, including stops in Albany, Montreal, Cincinnati, Vancouver, Los Angeles, Vegas, Austin, Indianapolis, Knoxville, and lots more (but no NYC). All dates are here.
CROWBAR
NOLA sludge legends Crowbar kick off their first headlining tour in six years in support of ‘Zero and Below,’ their first album in six years, which is with Spirit Adrift. The Riff Beast Tour hits NYC hits Brooklyn on August 9 at Saint Vitus (with Somnuri and Stabbed) and they’ve recently added 11 more dates — minus Spirit Adrift — including Iowa City, Nashville, Cincinnati, Birmingham and more.
METZ
METZ will be on tour this fall, celebrating the 10th anniversary of their self-titled debut album. Since we posted, they’ve added a show at Hamden, CT’s Space Ballroom on October 23. The NYC stop is at Brooklyn’s Warsaw on 10/22.
MARCUS MUMFORD
Marcus Mumford has announced a North American tour in support of his upcoming debut solo album.
LETSGETFR.EE FEST POSTPONED
The LETSGETFR.EE festival that was set August 20 & 21 at Queens’ Flushing Meadows-Corona Park with Missy Elliott, Wizkid, Anderson .Paak, Ozuna and more, has been postponed to 2023. “The reason is complex, yet simple: The combination of the shifting dynamics of our industry, the inflation we’re all feeling and new safety regulations that were recently put in place would have forced us to greatly alter your experience to a smaller, watered-down, inauthentic version. And that simply wouldn’t be doing right by the vision, the ambition, our partners and most importantly, YOU.” Read more here.
