Kingston rockers the Glorious Sons haven't gone on a headlining tour since they released their album The Union last year, but that's going to change this fall. From September to November, the group will be heading out on their "The Contender Tour," which will take them around the U.S. and Canada.
The U.S. leg is up first, as the group will spend close to a month south of the border. They will be back in their home and native land by mid-October, when they will embark upon a Canadian tour with openers Poor Young Things and Northcote.
"The Contender Tour" is named after the Glorious Sons' new single, "The Contender." All told, the schedule includes 44 shows, 24 of them in Canada. See the full itinerary below.
VIP packages are available for the Canadian shows, and more information can be found here.
