A Plea for Purging is excited to announce their first tour of the new year on which they’ll be joined by co-headliners Shai Hulud. Tour dates are listed below.
As a long time fan of Shai Hulud, I am honored to share the stage with them on our upcoming, co-headlining tour with them. I’m sure I will lose my mind every night. They are legendary. We both are very lucky to have Counterparts and Dead Icons come out and support this tour. Both bands are killer and will be a great fit to this run. – Andy Atkins
The Hope Within Hatred tour, supported by Counterparts and Dead Icons, kicks off February 23 in Danbury, CT and wraps up March 18 in Evansville, IN.
Plea has also just released a live video for The Life, a song from their 2011 release The Life and Death of A Plea For Purging. The band explains how the video came about:
While on last year’s “The Life and Tour of A Plea for Purging” we had a chance to hangout with our good friend, Mark Eshleman of Reel Bear Media, whom we have worked with in the past on “The Eternal Female.” With one camera and an ecstatic Dayton, OH crowd, Mark shot some footage that would become a live video for “The Life.” We are very happy with the way it turned out and owe it all to Mark and his neat camera.
