TRACER to Kick Off UK Tour at O2 Academy, 4/24

Due to popular demand, Australian power rock trio TRACER kick off their first nationwide headline UK tour at London's Islington O2 Academy on Tuesday 24th April.

Planet Rock will start a 48-hour ticket pre-sale from Wednesday 1st February at 9am, ents24's pre-sale will follow from Thursday. Tickets go on general sale at 10am on Friday 3rd February via the 24 hour ticket hotline: 0844 478 0898, Gig Cartel.

TRACER was recently voted third place in Planet Rock's "Best New Band" listeners' poll. Over the past four months the station has played the singles Too Much and Devil Ride, both taken from Tracer's debut critically acclaimed album Spaces In Between. The upcoming UK headline tour follows Tracer's 2011 tour supporting Royal Republic.

TRACER has captured the excitement and adrenalin rush of rock'n'roll. Tracer's sound embodies the same raw dynamics and edge to that of Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Queens of the Stone Age and Black Sabbath. Classic Rock magazine recently deemed them "New Band of the Month", while Total Guitar, Rock Sound, Guitarist, Fireworks and Powerplay awarded the debut 4 stars. Hailing from Adelaide, South Australia, the trio embrace a sonic sledgehammer sound steeped in epic guitars, thunderous riffs and raw, uncompromising vocals. Their Australian blend of 90's stoner and 70's classic rock continues to win them new fans.

Tuesday 24th April - Islington O2 Academy 2, London
Wednesday 25th April - The Tunnels, Bristol
Thursday 26th April - Manchester Academy 3
