Julie Christmas to Tour with Star-Studded Backing Lineup
Former Made Out of Babies and Battle of Mice vocalist Julie Christmas is touring Europe this summer with some rather interesting names in metal as her backing band, which should definitely make for one hell of a live show.
Christmas will be joined by John LaMacchia of Candiria; Andrew Schneider, Tom Tierney, and Johannes Persson of of Cult Of Luna; and Chris Enriquez of Spotlights.
Nine months ago, Christmas dropped her first new music in 13 years, the song “Not Enough” which you can hear below. At the time, she said the song came about while she was behind the wheel in her in hometown of Brooklyn.
“I started to sing ‘Not Enough’ while riding in a car on the highway in Brooklyn and seeing all these water towers along the tops of the buildings. Some of them are so beautiful! But I like the dented ones just as much. The sun was blazing hot that day and throwing crazy shadows under the towers. In my head, for a minute, It struck me that the towers were very, very brave. They were there ready to do what they were intended to do against incredible heat. And more importantly, they were there all the time. If they can do it, I can do it too.
“This song is now out and is released under my name but it was first written by Andrew Schneider and turned into what it is now by these incredible people: Johannes Persson, John LaMacchia, Chris Enriquez, Laura Pleasants, and Tom Tierney. Men among men!”
We really hope 2024 will include even more dates from Christmas, and hopefully more music. You can check out the tour dates below to see where in Europe she’ll be this summer.
