Plus Local supports announced for all cities!

Local supports for each show on the upcoming HE IS LEGEND tour have been announced. Joining national supports The Amity Affliction in Brisbane are Say Nothing and Bennesson Theory, in Sydney will be Rex Banner and Mark The Sky, whilst in Melbourne Responder and The Seduction will open procedings. Adelaide’s The Jonestown Syndicate and Abandon All Hope will get the party started in SA, and in Perth Dopamine (UK), Hope Here Gone and Anime Fire will be supports for the all ages show, whilst Hope Here Gone, Anime Fire and An Evening At Elmwood will play later that night for the 18+ crowd.

The southern rock avalanche known as HE IS LEGEND is set on its first ever collision course with Australia. Defying all genres from the beginning, they were catapulted into the limelight with their undeniably unique, fairy tale-like lyrics and wild live shows, backed up by the huge success of I am Hollywood and Suck Out The Poison on Solid State Records.

“We pride ourselves in being the most random band in the universe. There is no one concept, no one rule to how we do things. We want everyone to come to the show and never know what to expect, besides knowing they will have a great time.”

Although HE IS LEGEND have no interest in being pigeonholed as hardcore, metalcore, or screamo, they don’t shy away from heavy music in the slightest. The genre-bridge that they’ve built has seen them share the stage with contemporary greats from Killswitch Engage to Atreyu to Story Of The Year to Every Time I Die and Norma Jean. Not bad for a band of would be pirates, who just want to sail the open seas and loot all in their path.

So prepare to be boarded. HE IS LEGEND sets sail for Australia this September, with Brisbane’s own The Amity Affliction at the helm.
