Deftones can’t stop touring behind Diamond Eyes; They’re playing festivals, solo, with Alice in Chains and Mastodon, and now with Baroness. The rising prog metal band from Georgia has just announced a late-summer tour with Deftones, supporting last year’s Blue Record (which you can stream here).
The three-week U.S. tour is concentrated on a bunch of small-market towns that often get ignored by major tours. Case in point: the tour begins August 12th in Spokane, Washington. Deftones and Baroness will take the longest possible diagonal route through the U.S. and be in Florida by the end of the month, playing a couple of shows there before ending the trek in Charlotte, NC.
This tour leads right into the BlackDiamondSkye tour for the Deftones and a couple of festivals for Baroness. Below are the confirmed dates; more will be announced soon. The tickets, which go on sale Saturday, will be available on Ticketmaster or TicketWeb.
