Sludge metal band Kylesa arrives in Atlanta on June 21st at The EARL during their “Ultraviolet Summer 2013 Tour.” Kylesa released their highly-anticipated album Ultraviolet on May 28th, and it is the follow-up to their critically-acclaimed 2010 release Spiral Shadow. The tour sees support from Blood Ceremony, White Hills, and Lazer/Wulf. Get your tickets here.
“It’s been a while since we’ve done a headlining tour in the US or Canada,” explained singer/guitar player Laura Pleasants, referring to the near two-year gap since the Savannah, Georgia band’s last run. “We are looking forward to doing a proper tour supporting Ultraviolet. It will be good to see friends and fans (old and new) and hit these once familiar landscapes again. “
The quintet recorded Ultraviolet at The Jam Room in Columbia, SC with the band’s guitar player/songwriter, and sought-after producer, Phillip Cope (Baroness, Black Tusk) once again overseeing production.
