Next month, Virvum are touring Canada for the very first time. While initially only scheduled to blaze through Toronto, the band have added two more dates in response to rising fan anticipation across Ontario. The band’s melodic and blackened countrymen Stortregn will also join them on these two new dates in Sault St Marie and Thunder Bay.
“We cannot wait to finally meet and play for our loyal Canadian fans”, says guitarist Nic Gruhn. “With brand new material under our belt, we’re fully set to put the pedal to the metal, and provide you with that unrelenting tech/prog death that we all love so much.
We couldn’t be happier to share this experience with our good Swiss friends in Stortregn, who will be supporting us on every night of this tour.”
