Sunflower Dead announce new tour dates for Spring/Summer

April 4, 2016

Sunflower Dead are going to have quite a busy year as they continue to announce tour dates in support of their recent album, It’s Time To Get Weird.  They released the album last October through their own label, Bloody Bat Records. The album was produced by Dave Fortman (Evanescence, Godsmack, Slipknot) and Mikey Doling (Gemini Syndrome) and consists of 12 new tracks. The title track features KORN’s Jonathan Davis on vocals. The infectious rockers will be teaming up with Avatar, Hellyeah and In This Moment respectively on a trek that will take them across the US. This will provide you with many chances at catching their kick ass live show. We first came across Sunflower Dead when they opened up for (hed) P.E. and SOiL  on the Born To Ride 2 Tour in SF at the DNA Lounge. They immediately caught our attention as they put on a  great show.  Check the tour dates below and get yourself to a show: Tour Supporting Avatar 05-02 in Chattanooga, TN at Revelry 05-04 in NYC, NY at Highline Ballroom 05-07 [Read More]
