SYMPHONY X – North American Headliner Dates

Den Headz, progressive metal masterminds SYMPHONY X would like to assure everyone that their upcoming North American headlining tour will still go on as planned. In fact, SYMPHONY X will now be playing a longer set for their fans who have been eagerly waiting to see the band perform live again since 2008. Still joining SYMPHONY X on the road beginning on April 21st in Philadelphia and through May 22nd in West Springfield, Virginia are Boston‘s Powerglove and Montreal’s Blackguard.

SYMPHONY X guitarist & founding member Michael Romeo checks in about the tour:

“Some of you may be disappointed that Soilwork, and just recently Nevermore, left the tour; we share your frustration. We were looking forward to taking such a great line-up out on the road, but shit happens; best of luck to those bands in the future.

That being said, we’re still psyched about getting back on the road and giving the fans a full-on, killer show every night. We plan on doing some tracks from our upcoming CD, Iconoclast, and are really excited to be playing them for our North American fans for the first time ever. It’s going to be awesome!”
