Baroness Announce U.S. Tour

Baroness will be returning to the road this summer, kicking off a new round of U.S. dates on Aug. 12 at The Howard Theater in Washington, D.C. in support of their latest album "Purple"

The six-week outing includes stops at a number of festivals including Hopscotch, Houston Open Air, Psycho Las Vegas and Monster Energy Rock Allegiance. The band recently confirmed a spot on the Oct. 22 date of the Aftershock Festival as well.

"The cathartic experience of playing live music has not changed over the 13 years of performing," John Baizley said in a recent interview with the SF Weekly. "But the sense of relief and release I feel as an adult is as intense, if not more than, when I was younger. The response to this record has been really, really overwhelming. There have been some pretty dramatic changes in the way that our audiences react to our songs, and I couldn't be happier about that."
