Last year, kawaii-metal sensations BABYMETAL and “Nu Delhi” phenoms Bloodywood delivered their super-energetic collaborative single “Bekhauf.” This year, they’ve leveled up that cross-cultural partnership by announcing a full joint North American tour.
The upcoming trek was briefly teased on BABYMETAL’s Instagram stories yesterday (March 17th), but was formally announced today (March 18th). BABYMETAL will be headlining the 24-show trek, which begins June 13th at the 713 Music Hall. From there, they’ll be criss-crossing over the U.S./Canadian border a couple of times before closing out the tour at July 23rd at the Arizona Financial Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona.
As noted above, Bloodywood will be opening all dates, while Hollywood rockers Black Veil Brides and Ukranian metal vets Jinjer will provide direct support on select dates.
Pre-sales on tickets and VIP packages begin rolling out today at 1 p.m. ET, while general on-sales are live by Friday (March 21st). You’ll find more ticketing info over here, while the full tour schedule can be found below.
As previously reported, Bloodywood and BABYMETAL’s “Bekhauf” will appear on the former’s forthcoming NU DELHI album, which is out March 21st via Fearless Records. That record was likewise previewed in advance by the “Nu Delhi” and cuisine-focused “Tadke” singles.
An exclusive variant of NU DELHI on opaque silver vinyl, limited to 300 copies, is currently available to pre-order in Revolver’s shop. You can find it here.
It’s likewise added in a press release that “Tadke” and BABYMETAL’s 2024 “RATATATA” collab with Electric Callboy “offer a peak into what should be [BABYMETAL’s] forthcoming album,” though details are slim beyond this.
