Chevelle have announced a 2021 US tour in support of their ninth studio album, NIRATIAS, which dropped in March.
Fans won’t have to wait long to catch the alt-metal veterans on the road. The outing is comprised of two legs, with the first kicking off September 1st in Kansas City, Missouri, and running through September 25th in Mankato, Minnesota. The second leg launches November 4th in Milwaukee, and wraps up with a November 21st show in Pittsburgh.
Prior to the announcement, Chevelle had been waiting patiently to finally play shows around its latest album.
“Well, we have to say we are pretty damn happy about a new year, a new album, and now, a new tour,” the band commented in a press release. “Here’s to seeing you all out there.”
NIRATIAS (an acronym for “Nothing Is Real and This Is a Simulation”) marks a new chapter for Chevelle. The band expanded its alternative-metal sound to incorporate more elements of prog and art rock. A new fixation on science-fiction themes is also apparent, hence the dystopian album art.
Tickets are available Friday (July 30th) via Ticketmaster, with pre-sales beginning on Tuesday (July 27th).
