After playing 'An Evening With Sevendust' unplugged shows for the past few months in support of their acoustic album ‘Time Travelers & Bonfires,‘ Sevendust are cranking back up in electric mode for a summer tour with Gemini Syndrome.
For many years, the hard rock and metal genre was predominantly populated with white male musicians, but from the late '80s on there were more rockers breaking that color barrier. Sevendust frontman Lajon Witherspoon was one such artist who did so, and he spoke about finally meeting one of the musicians who helped break the barrier during an appearance on the 'Talk Is Jericho' podcast with Chris J
Sevendust fans have anxiously been awaiting the band's 'Time Travelers & Bonfires' acoustic album, and to give fans a taste of what's to come, the band has teamed with Loudwire to exclusively premiere the single 'Black.'
'That Metal Show' is back in action and set for a new episode on Saturday night (Jan. 25). Already in its 13th season, the VH1 Classic series has an all-star lineup in the works, with members of Sevendust and Living Colour to guest on the Jan. 25 episode.
Last year, Sevendust embarked on a crowdfunding campaign to record an acoustic album. According to their PledgeMusic page, more than 2700 people have contributed, and they have exceeded their goal by more than 60 percent with more than two months remaining. Now, more details have been revealed about the project.
Sevendust are ready to rock a new acoustic album for the fans, but they're asking for a little help to further the project. The band is the latest to utilize a PledgeMusic campaign to help fund one of their passion projects.
We already knew that Sevendust would be part of the 'From Death to Destiny' tour with Asking Alexandria, All that Remains, For Today and Emmure beginning in late October. Now, the band has announced more headlining dates between now and then.
Asking Alexandria have just unveiled details for a month-long U.S. tour beginning Oct. 25. Along for the ride is Sevendust, All that Remains, For Today and Emmure, creating a group of highly celebrated acts to support Asking Alexandria.
