“There’s been a lot going on in the Scale The Summit camp since we got home from our first headlining tour! First I’m very excited announce our new “Adventure Metal Across America Tour”! It’s our second headlining tour this year for “The Collective”, hitting a lot of the cities we missed on the first one. For those of you who came out to the first one, we’ll be mixing up our entire 80 minute set with different songs! We’re really excited to be bringing out Today I Caught The Plague, great progressive band from Toronto, currently out on the road with our buddies in Protest The Hero and Periphery!”
