Devilskin are excited to announce a countrywid­e tour to support their chart-topping new album Red. With the lifting of crowd and venue restrictio­ns, and due to massive demand, Devilskin will hit the road this August.

And the good news is, as always, they are performing a hometown gig. Even better we have a double pass up for grabs for you to join them at The Factory (R18) on Friday, August 14.

The response to the album release has been incredible right around the globe, with rave album reviews and fast additions to radio airplay at home and across the UK, Europe, Australia and the USA, Devilskin are amped to do what they do best — play live.

“We can’t wait to get amongst our good friends and celebrate Red. , the music and the messages on this album are real and especially poignant. We are extremely proud of these songs and the whole package of the album, but make no bones about it, this tour will be a party,” bassist Paul Martin contends.

“Everyone’s lives have been affected by Covid-19 to some degree, if anything, it’s made us appreciate our freedom and the simple joys of being with our friends to celebrate good times and good music. Let’s do that. I think we all need a party, don’t we?”

Devilskin are keen to treat their homeland to the live debut of Red. and promise a blistering new live show to promote this monster of an album.

Exclusive VIP Tickets are available and include:

· Early entry to venues;

· One hour earlier than General Door admission;

· 40 minute full stage acoustic performanc­e;

· Limited edition tour lanyard; · Early access to merchandis­e.

Devilskin will be joined by special guests Shepherds Reign. These rising stars from South Auckland have already amassed 1,500,000 Youtube streams and Internatio­nal acclaim

with their latest single Le Manu.

Reviewers have heaped praise on the new album……”what is ultimately Devilskin’s finest album to date. Sure, there is an argument for the fact that despite the increase in production values, a lot of Red could still be considered ‘Devilskin by numbers” — but why fix something that clearly isn’t broken?” Ambient Light Why indeed?

The album is Red but there is black involved, because rest assured Devilskin will deliver it in spades. No contest!!
