RIVAL SONS PREPARING FOR DEBUT EUROPEAN FESTIVAL PERFORMANCES

Californian blues-rockers RIVAL SONS are on their way to Europe for a run of shows, which includes the band's first ever European festival performances.

RIVAL SONS have just released their new album, PRESSURE & TIME in Europe and will kick off the tour tomorrow, June 24th, at the Azkena Rock Festival in Bilbao, Spain.  Following their run of festivals, RIVAL SONS will be joining heavy metal legends JUDAS PRIEST and QUEENSRYCHE for a UK tour.

RIVAL SONS drummer MICHAEL MILEY comments:

"We can't wait to get to Europe/UK.  Five weeks of touring and an album release!  What more could you ask for?!  Pressure & Time is out now on Earache and our first show is Azkena Rock Fest in Spain on 24th June.  We are fired up!  Oh, and dates with Judas Priest in July.  Holy shit!  I've never been to Europe so I'm looking forward to soaking in some of the culture."
