MASSIVE WAGONS. MASSIVE TOUR

Published:

Massive Wagons, the anthemic five piece rock act and Lancaster’s favourite sons, are set to build on a hugely impressive 2018 with the announcement of a major UK headline tour in April 2019.

Frontman Baz Mills says, ‘This is the culmination of years of hard work. I mean, the hard work continues now, it’s just at a slightly higher level these days – bigger venues and bigger audiences. But that’s exactly what bands strive for. We are humbled by the bands following, it’s growing faster than ever, and these shows are gonna be absolutely rockin’! We cannot wait! Songs for the next album are being written and it’s entirely possible some new stuff may creep into the set by then. They are sounding ace, and we can’t wait to play them live.’

Headline dates just announced for April 2019 are below:

Sat 06 Apr 2019 Bristol, Thekla headline
Fri 12 Apr 2019 Birmingham, Asylum headline
Sat 13 Apr 2019 London, The Dome headline

The band have become one of the most highly regarded of new British rock acts – perfectly demonstrated by their album charting at No 16 on the UK Album Chart. Following that chart breaking release earlier this year, via Earache Records, Massive Wagons have played tirelessly, selling out multiple shows (including The Borderline in London), and affirming their live presence on important stages such as Camden Rocks, Download Festival, Boomtown, and also alongside the likes of Status Quo and Blackberry Smoke. The band will cap-off this year playing as special guest to the super-group The Dead Daises.

As with all great rock bands, Massive Wagons excel live, with frontman Baz Mills bringing an energy, presence and humour to perfectly compliment his bands crafted songs.

Massive Wagons new record “Full Nelson” was released in August, and debuted in the UK Album Chart at #16, in the UK Rock Album Chart at #1, in the UK Indie Chart at #2 and in the UK Vinyl Chart at #4. Led by the charismatic frontman Baz Mills, the new record “Full Nelson” showcases the evolution of the band’s song writing both sonically and lyrically. From the rock driven opener “Under No Illusion” to the bluesy feel of “Sunshine Smile”, from the slower, passionate and heart-felt “Northern Boy” to the heavier “Robot (Trust In Me)”, this is an album of crafted songs and intense performance. “Robot (Trust In Me)” was also produced by Mike Exeter (Black Sabbath, Judas Priest).
Massive Wagons are: Baz Mills – vocals, Adam Thistlethwaite – guitars, Stephen Holl – guitars, Alex Thistlethwaite – drums and Adam ‘Bowz’ Bouskill – bass.

New album “Full Nelson” is out now, via Earache Records.
