Volcom Entertainment is proud to announce the European portion of the 2007 Volcom Tour with Year Long Disaster and Birds Of Avalon going to mainland Europe this November. All shows will be FREE.
Los Angeles, CA's Year Long Disaster are a Rock n' Roll power trio featuring Daniel Davies (son of Kinks guitarist Dave Davies) on guitar and vocals, Rich Mullins (ex-Karma To Burn, Speedealer) on bass, and Brad Hargreaves (Third Eye Blind) behind the drum kit. Recently completing their debut full-length album recorded in Tucson, AZ with Jim Waters (Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, R.L. Burnside), this self-titled effort was released in the U.S. on Oct. 9th and is set for release in Europe in early 2008. Year Long Disaster is currently on tour in the US with Turbonegro.
Raleigh, NC's Birds Of Avalon features former The Cherry Valence members; the husband and wife team of Paul Siler and Cheetie Kumar. After leaving The Cherry Valence, Siler and Kumar returned to Raleigh and got to work putting together a new band, recruiting local area musicians, Craig Tilley (The Weather) on vocals, Scott Nurkin (Dynamite Brothers) on drums, and David Mueller on bass, with Siler and Kumar rounding out the group as dueling axe slingers. Birds of Avalon's debut release, Bazaar Bazaar, was produced by Mitch Easter (R.E.M., Wilco, Let's Active) and Birds Of Avalon, and was released in the U.S. in May '07 and will be released in Europe in early 2008. Birds Of Avalon just wrapped up a short tour with The Flaming Lips in the U.S. and will next be doing a few shows with Ted Leo & The Pharmacists.
Year Long Disaster and Birds Of Avalon are both signed to Volcom Entertainment, a U.S. based record label, and subsidiary of the Volcom Clothing brand.
