MR.BISON Announce West Coast US Tour Dates
Along with recent tours announced for Samavayo and Omega Sun, these 10 shows to be undertaken by Italy’s MR.BISON are built out around the band’s appearance at the upcoming fifth edition of Planet Desert Rock Weekend in Las Vegas. In the case of the Tuscany four-piece — whose latest album, Echoes From the Universe (review here), was released this past February through respected purveyor Heavy Psych Sounds — they’ll begin the run at the fest and head for California from there, where they’ll do the majority of the shows, though dates in Arizona assure they’ll see desert as well as coastline. Fair enough. If you’re gonna make the trip, do it right.
MR.BISON have already done two European tours to support Echoes From the Universe, which is their third and farthest-reaching LP yet, and this trip across the Atlantic assures momentum will stay on their side as we move into the first part of 2025. A first hint of what might come after has already been dropped as they’ve been confirmed in the latest round of additions for Desertfest London in May. “Big things coming,” and all that.
Safe travels to MR.BISON, and I look forward to catching the set in Vegas for sure. Here’s the info from the PR wire:

MR.BISON masters the art of melding heavy psychedelia with progressive elements and evocative soundscapes. Formed in a small coastal town in Tuscany (Italy) in 2009, the band has reinvented their sound through four albums from stoner psych to heavy progressive rock, firmly establishing themselves in 2018 with the acclaimed “Holy Oak” and their 2020 concept album “Seaward”. The band has toured Europe and North America several times and played various festivals such as Desertfest Berlin, London and Antwerp, Krach am Back, Duna Jam.
Their new album “Echoes From The Universe” invites the listener to a prismatic voyage that explores the notion of freedom and destiny through Norse mythology and weaves together a vivid and majestic sonic tapestry that brims with liquid riffs, graceful psychedelia, progressive grandeur and vibrant vocals. “Echoes From The Universe” is available now on Heavy Psych Sounds.
