Undoubtedly one of the biggest heavy music success stories of late, I Prevail have rocketed into 2020 off a mammoth year, racking up over 100 million streams, sold-out headline shows - plus two Grammy nominations off the back of their incredible album Trauma that blew more than its fair share of ears and minds when it blasted into the world last year. But how does one top such a phenomenal year? By announcing a kick-ass run of shows down under this July, with tickets going on-sale this Friday 14th February.
While beloved the world over for their scathingly beautiful metalcore ways, us Aussies certainly have an ongoing love affair for the I Prevail gents, with Australia marking one of the group's biggest fanbases in the world. And with the recent announcement of their return to Aussie shores this July (and their previous Aussie tour selling out outrageously fast), this is one tour you won't want to sleep on.
Along for the tide on the tour presented by Destroy All Lines are mates Motionless in White and local legends Windwaker, amping up the heavy vibes to 11. For Motionless in White, 2019 saw the Scranton, PA group release their 5th full-length record 'Disguise' and embarked on huge US-wide tours alongside Atreyu, as well as with Alice Cooper and Halestorm, while Windwaker are also continually finding favour in the heavy realm, playing Download Festival, Good Things Festival and at Unify Gathering, as well as touring with Beartooth, Make Them Suffer, The Brave and embarking on numerous successful sold out headline tours.
While I Prevail are undoubtedly on a golden run right now, most recently nominated for two Grammy awards (Best Rock Album for 'Trauma' and for Best Metal Performance for "Bow Down), 2020 is only going to heat up this lot even more - so don't miss the chance to catch I Prevail in action, with tickets on-sale this Friday 14th February at 9am local time HERE.
