Tool reveal 2022 UK and European tour support

After seeing their covers of the likes of The Pot and Lateralus, Tool have invited Brass Against to join them on next year's European tour…

Tool have announced that they'll be joined by New York collective Brass Against as openers on their UK and European tour next year.

The group – whose website states that they "share the goal of creating music to inspire social and personal change" – caught the eyes of Maynard James Keenan and co. with their popular covers of The Pot and Lateralus. They also perform their own material, as well as covers of the likes of Rage Against The Machine, Soundgarden and Black Sabbath.

"This is so fun to write…" posted Brass Against. "We are the special guests on Tool's European tour in the spring!!"

Tool themselves shared that, "Brass Against captured our attention after posting their covers of The Pot, Lateralus, and more. We're excited to share that they'll be joining us for our spring 2022 European tour."
