BUTCHER BABIES And NONPOINT Announce 'Kings & Queens Tour'

March 12, 2018

BUTCHER BABIES have announced a national co-headlining "Kings & Queens Tour" with NONPOINT. The trek follows the release of BUTCHER BABIES' third studio album, "Lilith", which came out in October via Century Media Records. NONPOINT will perform new music off its highly anticipated 10th studio album, slated for a summer 2018 release via Spinefarm Records. Rising heavy metal band CANE HILL and punk/rock group SUMO CYCO will join the headliners. Tickets go on sale Friday, March 16.

BUTCHER BABIES co-frontwoman Carla Harvey states: "Since our inception, we have strived to create a performance that is a full on assault to the senses. We always felt that if you pay your hard-earned money to see a show, you should get just that, a show! Raw energy, passion, and intensity," Co-frontwoman Heidi Shepherd adds: "We are excited to bring our devout U.S. fanbase a headlining set with lots of surprises; digging deep into our new album, 'Lilith', and sprinkling in some old favorites from our last nine years as a band."

On the "Kings & Queens Tour", NONPOINT frontman Elias Soriano comments: "The time off was fun, but it's back to the business of moving crowds. The new music we play will show where we're at and what we're looking for out of the crowds in terms of reaction. We have pulled no punches! The live show is what we're about, so expect our best on this run with the queens in BUTCHER BABIES."

The "Kings & Queens Tour" will follow BUTCHER BABIES' current headlining European "Lilith" tour and is preceded by their many U.S. festival appearances in 2017, including Aftershock. The Los Angeles-based band previously supported HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD on their fall 2017 tour.
