Mastodon certainly aren’t lacking in confidence when it comes to embracing their next chapter. In the wake of parting ways with vocalist/guitarist Brent Hinds earlier this month, the progressive sludge metal favs found an initial live replacement in YouTuber/musician Ben Eller.
While it remains unclear if Eller will be holding down that role at future shows, the group have remained committed to playing out their spring tour with Coheed And Cambria & Periphery. Instead of opting to take a breather after that run, the band have also now just added a number European/UK headlining shows to their schedule in Luxembourg, Katowice, Cologne & Frankfurt. Here’s how their summer plans overseas will play out:
07/03 Cardiff, UK – Blackweir Park
07/05 Birmingham, UK – Villa Park
07/06 London, UK – Finsbury Park
07/27 Plovdiv, BUL – Hills Of Rock
07/30 Transylvania, ROM – Rockstadt Extreme Fest
07/31 Szekesfehervar, HUN – Fezen Festival
