Joey Jordison’s VIMIC announce a trio of UK shows
They're touring their debut album Open Your Omen
Joey Jordison’s new band VIMIC are coming to the UK in March 2017 for three headline shows.
Part of a larger European tour, the former Slipknot and Scar The Martyr star’s new metal outfit will play dates in London, Birmingham and Manchester in support of their debut album ‘Open Your Omen’.
Penned while Joey was recovering from the often permanent neurological condition Acute Transverse Myelitis, the drummer says the record is an intensely personal affair.
“The riffs, lyrics, and drums of Open Your Omen will tell you a lot,” Joey says. “I did this record when I was coming out of the Acute Transverse Myelitis condition. It’s literally what saved me and helped me get back to where I’m healthier than ever.
“These guys and this album pushed me to not only relearn how to walk, but how to play the drums again. Open Your Omen is the rebirth of the rest of my life.”
Alongside Joey on drums, VIMIC features Kalen Chase (vocals), Jed Simon (guitar), Kyle Konkiel (bass) and Matt Tarach (keyboards).
The trio of UK dates are the culmination of a European tour that also takes in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and France.
Tickets to the tour go on sale from Kerrang! Radio Tickets at 9am on Friday 16th December.
