The New England grind unit add to their live slate with a festival appearances, headlining dates and a career first Euro trek.
Asserting their position as one of the hardest working, hardest hitting live acts in the space of extreme music, New England grind collective Escuela Grind have firmed up their first ever European headlining tour set for this September. The band left a lasting impression as part of the recent sold out European trek supporting genre-smashers Napalm Death – such that they had to come back for a run all their own.
The three week run will include several club dates and a handful of festival appearances, including a culminating set alongside the legendary Carcass for Muscadeath Festival in France.
“To be able to return to Europe for a headlining tour, and to tour Europe twice in one year, are amazing achievements for us,” shared Escuela Grind vocalist Katerina Economou. “We had such a blast opening for Napalm Death earlier this year, and we met many new fans, so we’re extra excited to return and play a more extensive and personal set.”
Prior to the band’s European excursion, the Grind will embark on a brief, albiet pummeling run in the month of August for North American dates supporting The Acacia Strain. Bookending the stretch of live dates, Escuela Grind will come back the States after their conquest of the EU/UK to join rank with Baroness for a handful of shows along with Jesus Piece, Portrayal of Guilt and more that will certainly prove colossal.
