Virginia punks Anti-Flag have announced a headlining tour of North America slated for this fall. The trek will begin with a U.S. run before heading to the Great White North. Canadian dates will feature Vulgaires Machins and Mudie supporting.
The band have also announced that their ANTIfest will be hitting multiple U.S. cities this year. The group said of their upcoming plans:
“For a band that has been together for almost 30 years, and one who is putting the finishing touches on its 13th album, finding new ways to share these stories, build community, and put empathy first is always a considerable challenge.
To embark on this next chapter of Anti-Flag, we are taking ANTIfest around the U.S. We will be looking to share new music with each one of these shows. It’s the constant search for solace that lead us to punk rock, and these shows will be a celebration of that search. Another world is possible, and it’s within our reach.
Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 17th at noon Eastern time. Tickets will be available here.
