Canadian progressive metallers Anciients have announced their first U.S. tour in eight years, set to coincide with their appearance at this year’s ProgPower USA in Atlanta, GA on September 4th. The month-long trek will see the band hitting cities such as Portland, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Dallas, and more.
Anciients’s frontman Kenneth Paul Cook comments on the upcoming trek, “It’s been a long time coming, which makes it that much more special to announce that we will finally be returning to the USA for a run of shows this summer/fall. We’ve got a handful of killer bands joining us on select dates, to get us to and from the ProgPower fest in Atlanta. We look forward seeing our American fans out on the road!”
Anciients will be joined by Dawn of Ouroboros on most dates, with additional support from Nott, Armed for Apocalypse, and Exist in select cities. Check out the full list of dates below to see if the tour is coming to a stage near you.
