CREEPER announce theatrical Off With Their Heads UK shows for October
CREEPER have announced a four-date UK headline run for October, with the Off With Their Heads! tour set to bring a new stage production to Cardiff, London, Manchester and Glasgow.
The shows follow a typically dramatic weekend at Download, where the band played two very different sets: a Friday appearance that saw frontman William Von Ghould guillotined on stage, followed by a packed Sunday night headline slot on the Dogtooth Stage.
Support on the October dates will come from Calva Louise and Starbenders, with the run including a London show at the O2 Forum Kentish Town.
A new production set in the world of Sanguivore
The tour continues the theatrical world built around CREEPER’s two-part Sanguivore albums, with the band framing the new shows as a live story built around their current vampire mythology.
William Von Ghould says: “This Halloween season, join us for four special shows set in the world of Sanguivore. The performances will feature a new stage production following the vampire rock band on tour as they are pursued by The Mistress of Death. Blending live music with theatrical storytelling, the show will bring the characters and themes of the current era to life on stage. Come immerse yourself in the flesh and the fantasy with us this October, just watch out for your head!”
The announcement lands after a run of large-scale live appearances, including an OVO Wembley Arena co-headline show with Black Veil Brides, the sold-out SANGUI-TOUR UK and European headline run, arena dates with Ice Nine Kills and a first appearance at Bloodstock.
Tickets for the October tour go on sale at 10am on Wednesday, 17 June.
Tickets are on sale here.
