Concerts: Ana Kefr Announce US National Tour For October-November

Posted on Saturday, August 27 @ 14:50:00 UTC by nightowl

California-based extreme prog-metal band Ana Keft have released the tour dates for their upcoming month-long U.S. tour in October-November, all in support of their recently released, critically-acclaimed second full-length album The Burial Tree (II) (Muse Sick Records), the follow-up to 2009's debut Volume 1 (Muse Sick).

Regarding the tour, Ana Kefr frontman and keyboardist Rhiis D. Lopez commented: "Ana Kefr is a D.I.Y. band to the core, and this tour is an in-house job down to the smallest of details. There are plenty of bands constantly on the road, but the majority of the longer tours are backed by labels and booking agents. Our tour was organized by myself and Fonzie (Alphonso Jimenez, bass), and as such you'll see we're playing everything from larger stages to sweaty underground metal bars. We've even organized the line-up on half of these shows and are seriously impressed by the enthusiasm and generosity of metal-loving strangers. We can't wait to meet everyone, share some beers and bang some heads!"
