When they announced the long-awaited follow-up to their last Juno Award-winning album, Anciients assured us that after eight years of soul-searching deep within the Canadian wilderness, they were ready to hit the road hard and fast.
This fall, the heavy, heady and heartfelt progressive metal band are playing three special shows in their hometown of Vancouver to welcome Beyond The Reach Of The Sun. Today, they are building steam by announcing a co-headlining tour of Western Canada with their fellow Canucks, Bison.
"We are beyond excited to play our new album in a live setting for the very first time," says vocalist / guitarist Kenny Cook about the band's upcoming shows. "It's going to be epic!"
