BLACK TUSK will resume touring in the new year for their first trek following the passing of their bassist Jonathan Athon, who passed away from injuries suffered in a motorcycle accident on November 07th. For the time being Corey Barhorst (Niche, ex-Kylesa) will be handling the bass duties. The tour in question will find the group supporting BLACK LABEL SOCIETY overseas. Black Tusk commented of that:

“It’s been an incredibly trying time for us over the past month and we want to thank everyone for their support. We had confirmed the tour with Black Label Society and finished the new album before Athon‘s accident and Athon, specifically, had been very excited about the opportunity to tour with BLS and we feel there’s no way he’d want things to end on this note. Corey Barhorst, formerly of Kylesa and currently of Niche, will be stepping in for Athon for the time being. All of us go back over 10 years and Corey seemed the natural choice to carry on for Athon.”

Dates for the aforementioned tour have been posted below. Meanwhile, those looking to help out Athon‘s girlfriend and family can donate to his memorial fund via [email protected].
