Vesperia Joining Necronomicon On Canadian Tour Dates

Canadian epic metal quartet and 2015 Wacken Metal Battle champions Vesperia will soon trek across Canada with death metal masters Necronomicon and Floridian tech-death metallers Abiotic for the "Okkultis In Canada" tour presented by PureGrainAudio.com.

The tour will kick off in Ottawa, ON on August 4th and head as far west as Vancouver to wrap up back east in Vesperia's hometown of Oshawa on August 27th. This is Vesperia's second cross Canada tour in 2016, previously supporting Finnish band Kalmah during the month of April.

"We are back for another assault upon Canada! This time we look forward to joining forces with Necronomicon and Abiotic! We can't wait to see all of our Canadian fans again soon!" comments vocalist / bassist Morgan Rider.

Vesperia is currently completing the recording of a new album to follow to 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 art created by Juno award-winning artist Hugh Syme (Rush, Nevermore, Dream Theater).

The band also launched an Indiegogo campaign to raise over $5,000 to record the new album giving fans many special and unique perks for their contributions: including mead made by the band's front man Morgan Rider, drinking horns, album pre-releases, the bands stage banners and much more!
