Skindred are “paying it both back and forwards” with their UK tour support

Skindred have announced that they are bringing along a whole bunch of brilliant bands to their upcoming Smile (Again) UK tour.

This October and November, at various dates on the band’s headline run their support acts will include: As December Falls, Nonpoint, Graphic Nature, Dream State, BLACKGOLD, Scruffy Bear, North Atlas, Deadwax, Redhook, Torus, Native James, Mother Vulture, Motions and Ward XV1. Incredible!

“We have been mulling over who best to join us on our UK tour this autumn and as everyone knows we love to shine a light on new and emerging talent,” explains drummer Arya Goggin. “I am sure you will agree we have some amazing bands joining us for these shows including the likes of As December Falls, Graphic Nature, Dream State, Torus, Blackgold, Scruffy Bear, North Atlas and many more. It’s all about supporting the next generation of new talent and keeping music live.

“And it is also about paying it both back and forwards, which is why we are stoked to be able to have the brilliant U.S. band Nonpoint from Fort Lauderdale, Florida join us for some shows. When we first rocked up in the USA many years ago Nonpoint were the band that gave us the opportunity to support them on their U.S. tour. So we are stoked to have them join us for some shows.”
