"We're looking forward to putting some much needed metal into The Great Escape festival this May down in Brighton! It was super cool to be invited to headline the Hard Rock & Metal Coalition by the folks over at AIM. Also a big thanks to our friends over at Team Rock for putting their name to it. We've had a few killer shows in Brighton over the last 2 years, so make sure you turn out and raise a glass to UK heavy metal with us!"
