1/122012 Tours Set to Start
NAMM is right around the corner and we are pleased to embark on a series of tours that start during the trade show in sunny Southern California. The first two shows are at the Alvas Showroom in San Pedro, CA on Jan 21 Sat 8pm and Jan 22 Sun 6pm. From there it’s onto a clinic-show at GIT on Jan 24 Tue and then up to northern Cal for a show at Biscuits & Blues in downtown SF on Jan 27 Fri 8pm. The short west coast tour concludes with two dates at the Rendezvous in Seattle on Jan 28 Sat 11pm and Jan 29 Sun 9pm.
After a break in early-to-mid Feb, we fly down to Costa Rica for a big one-off show there that will also feature Greg Howe and his band and Alex Hutchings from UK on Feb 25 Sat. Then we return to Southern Cal for a show at Brick By Brick in San Diego on March 2 Fri 8:30pm and then at the Roxy in West Hollywood on March 4 Sun as the headliner for WesFest. Then we are straight off to UK on March 5 to start the big tour of Europe. The UK portion of the tour will feature the progressive power trio Godsticks as the opening act and we are very pleased to have this superb band open up for us in Guthrie’s home country.
The complete tour dates for the Europe tour are now up to date. We look forward to seeing you out there soon. We’re working on more tours throughout the world for the remainder of 2012 and will post those dates as soon as they get confirmed. 2012 promises to be a very exciting year for the Aristocrats as we build on the momentum of the very successful launch of the debut album that was released on September 13, 2011. Thanks again for all your support. We’re looking forward to a very rocking 2012! – EY
