Legendary symphonic metal band Kamelot have recently celebrated their return with their first full-length in five years, The Awakening. The album has been heavily praised all over the world by listeners and critics. Along with the release of the album, the band have also recently completed their European headline tour.
This time, Kamelot return to the stage once again with the announcement of the 2023 “Awaken The World” North American headline tour featuring special guests Battle Beast. Additional support will be provided by labelmates Xandria.
Guitarist Thomas Youngblood shares his thoughts:
“We are beyond excited to return to North America for the Awaken The World Tour! We just returned from four weeks in Europe to packed houses, so we cannot wait to play new songs and the new set to the Kamelot Nation U.S. and Canada. Joining us on the journey will be our good friends and live legends Battle Beast from Finland, as well as our friends Xandria, who are returning to our shores to round off an amazing lineup. See you all at the shows!”
