The sensational hard rock/progressive band from the US - Fair To Midland - have just confirmed their appearance at this year's edition of the Metal Hammer Festival in Poland. They will perform on one stage along with Tool (US), Chris Cornell (US), Dir En Grey (JP), Coma (PL) and Delight (PL)!

Fair To Midland, founded in 1998 in the quiet farm town of Sulphur Springs in Texas, sped up their career when Seri Tanian, vocalist of System of the Down, came across them. They made such a good impression on him that Tanjan offered them a record contract. And it is Tanjan's company - Serjical Strike - that is to release the band's new album Fables From A Mayfly: What I Tell You Three Times Is True on the 12th June.



The group released 2 full-length albums so far (The Carbon Copy Silver Lining (2001), Inter Funda Stifle (2004)). An EP The Drawn And Quartered from 2006 was their first release on Serjical Strike. Their music incorporates dynamics distnctive of bands like Tool, King Crimson or Mars Volta. Only in US they have sold over half a million records!

This summer Fair To Midland will appear at the biggest festivals such as Download Festival, Rock Am Ring, Rock In Park, Wacken Open Air or Mera Luna. A tour in US along with Wednesday 13 and 69 Eyes is scheduled for mid June and July. In August they will support a Japanese band Dir En Grey.
