Boss Keloid Announce UK & Ireland Tour Dates
UK prog-heavy rockers Boss Keloid have kept themselves busy the last year-plus supporting their Family the Smiling Thrush LP (review here), up to and including releasing a live-in-studio version of the record, and the thread will continue into the New Year as they’ve just announced a stretch of dates that will take them over to Ireland for a date in Dublin to start before they head north to Belfast and loop back to English soil to pick up in Newcastle. I have little sense of what the weather is like in March in the UK and Ireland, but if I was the betting type I’d say… moist and cold? There’s a chance that would be my bet for high summer as well, at least for some of where they’re going.
They’ll play with Elder Druid in Dublin and Belfast and Giant Walker throughout, about whom I am largely ignorant except to say that they’re doing shows with Boss Keloid in March. Not nothing, but given the company they’re keeping, clearly further investigation is due.
Boss Keloid announced the run on the ol’ social media thing:
BOSS KELOID – UK and Ireland Tour March 2023
We are pleased to announce: Boss Keloid UK and Ireland Tour March 2023.
Tour support comes from the brilliant Giant Walker and the awesome Elder Druid (Dublin and Belfast).
Big thanks to the fellow brother egg Tyler Hodges at Heavy Mountain Agency for nailing this all down for us.
