News : Buckcherry national supports announced

By on January 19, 2016

The official supports for Californian rock band Buckcherry‘s Australian/New Zealand tour this March were today announced.

One of rock’s great bands, Buckcherry will return to Australia and New
Zealand this March.

Led by Josh Todd, a man who personifies rock n roll and anchored by
guitarists Keith Nelson and Stevie D, drummer Xavier Muriel and bassist
Kelly Lemieux,

Buckcherry will deliver a night of straight up good time rock and roll.

It’s going to be loud, it’s going to be sweaty, it’s going to be awesome!

Adding even more Awesome to this tour are a carefully selected bunch of hard
rocking local acts that have proven themselves time and again for delivering
the goods and getting everyone’s juices flowing.

Starting in Auckland, Unleash The Kraken will do exactly that and set the
tone for what’s to come. Their hybrid of glam and nu metal they’ve
christened Glu-Metal will have the room bouncing instantly, and the five women of Blue Ruin will set everyone’s ears on fire with their pop punk
grunge sound.

In Melbourne, the bluesy swagger and riff fuelled rock of Palace Of The King
will be complimented by Electric Dynamite, a band who’s debut release was titled Hair.Denim.Sex.Metal. Sums things up perfectly!

When the tour hits Brisbane, Electric Dynamite will be primed to do it all
over again and one of Australia’s most iconic hard rock bands, The Poor, are making a long overdue return to the stage!

Sydney fans will have heard the rumble from a thousand kilometres away a few
days before and will be at the mercy of Palace Of The King setting the scene on a Friday night.

Finally in Perth, Buckcherry fans will be treated to the classic 70’s rock
power of the all-female Legs Electric who wear the influences of of their heroes proudly on their sleeves.

Joining them are three piece progressive rockers Opia who’s cyclonic wall of sound will be felt all the way to the back of the
room.

Buckcherry and these amazing support bands will hit town soon.. oh yeah, you
want it.

Congratulations to all band’s chosen. Tickets are on sale now via killrockstar.com.au/tickets/buckcherry.
