Baroness Extend North American Tour, Add Toronto and Vancouver Stops

BY Gregory AdamsPublished May 13, 2013

Later this month, Baroness get back on the road for their first U.S. tour since last summer's debilitating bus crash in the UK, but the band have now announced additional dates that will keep them busy this summer too.

On top of the previously announced spring dates and festival performances at Chicago's Lollapalooza and Montreal's Heavy MTL this August, the band have added several new U.S. club shows, as well as two more Canadian dates. The first up-north stop this summer now takes place at Toronto's Mod Club on August 9 and the tour closes at Vancouver's Venue on September 4. Joining the band on the summer dates will be fellow Atlanta outfit Royal Thunder.

You can see the details on all the band's tour dates, including upcoming gigs with Coliseum, down below, where you'll also find a candid trailer for the trip featuring interview clips with the group's John Baizley.

In other news, the previously teased Baroness Relief Fund, which will raise funds to help pay the band's hospital bills, goes live today (May 13) at 2 p.m. EDT. Mastodon, Kylesa, Neurosis and more have donated items to the charity auction.
