Vesperia To Support Luca Turilli's Rhapsody, Recording New Album

Currently on a cross Canada tour with Finnish outfit Kalmah, the Toronto, ON based Vesperia will also be local support for the June 1st tour stop on Luca Turilli's Rhapsody and Primal Fear at the Virgin Mobile Mod Club.

Vesperia vocalist / bassist Morgan Rider comments: "We would like to announce our addition to the Toronto stop for Rhapsody and Primal Fear! Though our sound may be routed with a more death metal element, we feel these power metal fans will appreciate our orchestral elements and high speed dexterity!"

In addition to that support slot, Vesperia will be headlining this year's Kitchener Metalfest on May 28th in Kitchener, ON, which is a charity event to raise funds for the Grand River Regional Cancer Centre.

After tour, Vesperia will also complete the recording of a new album to follow 2015's "The Iron Tempests" EP. The album is being recorded at Blue Sound & Music Studios in Toronto, Canada with engineer/ producer Russ Mackay (Mastodon, Iron Maiden, Styx) and will feature an array of famous Canadian guest musicians with the art created by Juno award-winning artist Hugh Syme (Rush, Nevermore, Dream Theater).
