Stoned Jesus Touring South America Next Week
Ukrainian heavy rockers Stoned Jesus recently finished out a tour of Spain and France alongside Bordeaux’s Mars Red Sky. The Kiev trio are still supporting 2015’s The Harvest (review here), though a recent reissue of their 2011 EP, Stormy Monday, isn’t a bad excuse to get out either. In any case, the oft-traveling three-piece will head to South America for the first time this month for a run of shows in Chile, Argentina and Brazil, playing some gigs alongside Saturndust, soon to record a new album of their own with Gabriel Zander of Estudio Superfuzz. Of course, the tour is put on by Abraxas Events.
You might recall Stoned Jesus were slated to make their New World debut last summer at Psycho California, but were held up on visa issues. This year, in addition to a couple shows in Greece at the end of this month, they’re slated to perform in France at Hellfest in June and at SonicBlast Moledo in August, among others I’m sure that have been and are still to be announced.

This is the first time Stoned Jesus come to the Americas, and first time starting from the South! They were supposed to play Psycho California last year but they got some trouble with their visas and the US tour never happened.
