Canadian metal maestro Devin Townsend will be bringing his eponymous band to UK shores, starting in Bristol in March of next year, and finishing at the famous Rock City in Nottingham. The tour announcement follows the release of Devin Townsend Project’s seventh album Transcendence in September this year, as well as a tour around Europe in the beginnings of the new year. Townsend himself said of the album “The result of this process is a record that I truly think the intention of is special […] I am very proud of it and everyone involved.”
In the two years since DTP’s last album Z2, Townsend’s ambitions have been continuing to grow, recently culminating in the of release ‘Ziltoid Live At The Royal Albert Hall’, a documentation of the band bringing the famous Ziltoid story to life, on the grandest of stages.
Whilst on the road, the band will be supported by Milton Keynes’ own TesseracT, as well as Norwegian prog-metallers Leprous. The dates and venues are below, and tickets can be purchased via the band’s Facebook page, or their official website.
