Following the recent departure of Brent Hinds, Mastodon are charging forward with confidence into their next era. The progressive sludge metal icons initially tapped Ben Eller, a YouTuber and musician, as their temporary live guitarist earlier this month. While it remains to be seen if Eller will continue in that role long-term, the band is pressing ahead with their spring tour alongside Coheed And Cambria and Periphery.
Not content to slow down after that run, Mastodon have now added a series of European/UK headlining dates, including stops in Luxembourg, Katowice, Cologne, and Frankfurt. Their updated summer itinerary overseas now includes:
07/03 Cardiff, UK – Blackweir Park
