Knocked Loose Announces Headline North American Tour

Published

on

On the heels of their career-defining and critically-acclaimed album You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To, Knocked Loose announces their headline fall North American tour with support from The Garden, DRAIN and Militarie Gun on select dates.

Produced by Live Nation, the 18-date tour will see the Louisville band perform at amphitheaters and ballrooms across the country as a victory lap celebrating their emergence as America’s preeminent heavy band. Additionally, Knocked Loose will be performing at the Pure Noise Records 15th anniversary show in Las Vegas alongside Spanish Love Songs and See You Space Cowboy. For a taste of what to expect from a Knocked Loose show, check out the fury in this clip from their recent sold out show at Brooklyn Steel here.

Tickets for Knocked Loose’s tour are available with artist presale beginning today, August 13th with additional presales running throughout the week ahead of the general onsale this Friday, August 16th at 10am local time at here.

You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To has been praised by the likes of GQ, Forbes, The Guardian, The FADER, Revolver, Kerrang!, The Needle Drop, FLOOD and Pitchfork, who stated in their 8.0 review that Knocked Loose has “amplified and concentrated their sound into something so potent that it has its own gravitational pull.” The album was produced by Drew Fulk (Disturbed, Lil Peep, Motionless In White) and includes the singles “Suffocate (feat. Poppy),” “Blinding Faith” and “Don’t Reach For Me.” Following the album’s release, Knocked Loose went on a nationwide, sold out tour with Show Me The Body, Speed and Loathe opening. That tour, which saw the band perform in the biggest rooms of their career to date, paired with the band’s Coachella set marked the opening of a new chapter of a band that has steadily built its fanbase over the past decade.

Emerging in 2014 with their debut EP Pop Culture, the Kentucky quintet has been sharpening the blade of their earnest songwriting and skull-melting musicality over the course of the last 10 years. In 2016, Knocked Loose released their debut album Laugh Tracks, which features the track “Counting Worms” and in 2019 they released their sophomore album A Different Shade of Blue, which saw the band continue to lean toward heavier and more challenging sonics. Knocked Loose is vocalist Bryan Garris, guitarist Isaac Hale and Nicko Calderon, bassist Kevin Otten and drummer Kevin “Pacsun” Kaine.
