Tree63 Announces Tour Dates Ahead Of New Album 'Land'
South Africa's internationally-renowned rockers Tree63 have announced tour dates ahead of their first new album in eight years.
Following a successful Kickstarter campaign for their seventh full-length album, 'Land', the band are expected to release the album in June. The first single, 'The Storm' has already been revealed through a lyric video, see below.
"It's all done: 12 new songs for you all, the first album by Tree63 since 2007's 'Sunday!'", confirmed the band. "Thanks for your patience, especially all of you who contributed to our successful Kickstarter campaign, we literally couldn't have done it without you!"
The band will kick off a seven-date South African tour at the Hard Rock Cafe in Sandton on 11th June 2015.
"Many of the new songs on Land are about being on a long and treacherous journey and finally seeing our rescue in the distance," says John Ellis, Tree63 lead vocalist/guitarist.
'Land' is the single most hoped for event for a sailor on a stormy sea, and likewise on our journey with God we long for some sense of certainty that God is all we imagine and hope for. Of course, we never quite make it this side of eternity, but we can have courage in the fact that land is in sight!"
Ellis, Darryl Swart (drums) and Daniel Ornellas (bass) subsequently reformed the band following the enthusiastic reception they received at a series of reunion events last year in South Africa.
