Whores and American Sharks going on tour together (dates)

by Ian Chainey

Whores at Union Pool in 2012 (more by Markus Shaffer)

Atlanta’s Whores are heading back out on the road this August, partnering with American Sharks for the majority of their announced engagements. The sludge-heavy noise rockers will be shaking locales such as Chicago and Austin along with an appearance at Heavy Montreal. On August 7, the tour stops in at Brooklyn’s Saint Vitus. Tickets for that show are available now. All dates are listed below.

Both Whores and American Sharks have logged significant road time this year. Whores last passed through New York with Fight Amp back in March. (Fight Amp are playing Saint Vitus on July 16 with Roomrunner, Kowloon Walled City, and Primitive Weapons.) American Sharks went on a tour with Red Fang and Big Business not long ago and squeezed two smaller NYC shows in between. And, for American Sharks, this slate of dates with Whores appears to be the meat in a tour sandwich. They’re surrounding the August run with July and September shows with Clutch and Lionize.

All of the dates along with streams from the two bands appear below…
