KILLSWITCH ENGAGE ANNOUNCES SPRING 2025 HEADLINE TOUR
Featuring Kublai Khan TX, Fit For A King, and Frozen Soul as Support
The tour kicks off on March 5 in Nashville and wraps up on April 12 in Portland, Maine.
Three-time Grammy-nominated hard rock giants and platinum-selling band Killswitch Engage—comprised of Jesse Leach (vocals), Adam Dutkiewicz (guitar), Joel Stroetzel (guitar), Mike D’Antonio (bass), and Justin Foley (drums)—are hitting the road this spring.
Following a successful 25th anniversary performance at the renowned New England Metal & Hardcore Fest last month, the band is set to embark on their first North American tour since late 2022, as they have been focused on developing new music.
The tour features Kublai Khan TX, Fit For A King, and Frozen Soul as supporting acts, kicking off on March 5 in Nashville and concluding on April 12 in Portland, Maine. The complete list of dates is provided below.
The band’s latest album, “Atonement”, is currently available through Metal Blade Records.
“Excited is an understatement for the way that I feel about this tour,” Leach shared. “We will be playing a solid amount of new songs, as well as old. That alone makes me very stoked. On top of all that, the lineup we have chosen is a powerful and eclectic blend of hardcore and metal with Kublai Khan TX, Fit For A King, and Frozen Soul. It is going to make for a really great live experience for everybody who comes to check out this tour. I feel like the band is firing on all cylinders and the timing for this tour couldn’t be more perfect. This will be a tour to be remembered…mark my words.”
