Fatherson will be continuing their new album preview tour with an 11 date tour in the build up to their third album ‘Sum of All Your Parts’ which comes out September 14th.
This tour comes not long after the release of the latest single from their new album called ‘Making Waves’ and were sure that name will be an apt description for this tour showing off their latest music.
This tour will add on to their remaining summer tour dates where they will be appearing at 2000 Trees among other dates.
UK tours are in full swing for some bands and some are now preparing to kick things off as the countdown for festival season slowly dwindles to zero, but until then, some big bands are playing shows that shouldn’t be missed. To help here is our list of some of the biggest tours to be hitting UK venues that definitely shouldn’t be missed.
Foo Fighters
We reported way back when the Foos teased and announced their mini UK tour which will be hitting our arenas in June. If you managed to get tickets for these shows then it’s guaranteed to be a good night, and if you return back home with your voice still in tact then you definitely didn’t sing enough.

Currently touring their latest record ‘Hydrograd’ Stone Sour are on a long run of shows and festivals for the album and if there ever was a sure thing for a gig of the highest quality, then make sure you catch Corey and co in June.

Myles Kennedy
The Alter Bridge and Slash vocalist is coming over to the UK to tour his first ever solo record. If you want to know what to expect, search on YouTube the acoustic sets he has done with Slash and just how powerful and impressive his voice is and that’s exactly what will be playing 7 shows over the UK, definitely keep an eye out for this one!
This is definitely going to be one you need to catch!
As it stood before today, While She Sleeps were only down to play two shows in the UK after their tour run in the US. WSS were set to play a one-off in their home town of Sheffield on December 8th, and they were confirmed as support band for Architects at the Ally Pally.
Well WSS have now extended this, performing 4 headline shows after their show with Architects. Traveling to Bristol, Birmingham, Glasgow and Manchester, there is more chance to catch one of the fastest growing metal bands going.
After a series of pictures being uploaded to their social media accounts all yesterday with old style portraits of the each member of the band with a Union Jack banner, the Foo Fighters have finally revealed what they have been hinting at
