Baroness, Red Fang to Co-Headline Short U.S. Tour This May

In a move that feels like this should have happened years ago, Baroness and Red Fang will be sharing the stage as co-headliners for a short U.S. tour this spring. Focused on the east coast, the five-date run will kick off on May 13 in Winston Salem, North Carolina and come to an end on May 18 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Again, it must be reiterated that these two bands — despite apparently being “old friends” and running in the same musical hemisphere for their entire careers — have never toured together. It’s a detail that Baroness themselves said was a shock when they found out.

“It will be great to get out and play some shows with our old friends in Red Fang. Surprisingly, we’ve never properly toured together, so we’re all excited to bring these shows to you this spring. Furthermore, it will be great to have another opportunity to support and perform songs from our latest record, Stone, with you!”

Similarly, Red Fang’s Bryan Giles said he and his bandmates were excited to share the stage with Baroness, even if the run is pretty short.

“We’re stoked to be playing shows with Baroness this Spring! I’m pretty sure these shows are gonna go off!”

Tickets will go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. local time. We’ve got the full list of dates below, so you should check ’em out below and make travel arrangements, because this two-some is going to be hella potent.
