THEORY OF A DEADMAN and SEVENDUST Join Forces for 36-Date Co-Headline Tour of North America

A tour partnership over two decades in the making, THEORY OF A DEADMAN and SEVENDUST are teaming up for The Dead / Seven Tour. This 36-date co-headline tour promises to be more than just another show. It’s an unforgettable evening comprised of hard rock anthems, raw energy, and decades of fan-favorite hits. Whether you’ve been with them since day one or just found your new favorite track, this tour promises to deliver it all!

The Dead / Seven Tour is scheduled to kick off on August 7th in Duluth, MN, and run through September 29th, where it ends in Bozeman, MT.  Along the way, it will make stops in Fargo, ND (August 11), Detroit, MI (August 23), Atlanta, GA (September 5), Corpus Christi, TX (September 12), and Riverside, CA (September 20) to name a few. 

“We are beyond pumped to hit the road with one of the most beloved rock bands and friends, Sevendust. Playing shows with them going back to 2002, man, this tour is gonna crush! Cannot wait to play some new tracks and some old ones too. Excited for rockers Return to Dust to join us as well,” explains Tyler Connolly of THEORY OF A DEADMAN. 

“Man, hearing Tyler say that takes me back. We’ve been throwing down together for a long time, and it’s always been nothing but love and high energy. Theory of a Deadman always brings it, so we already know this tour is going to be something special. We’re beyond excited to get out there, share the stage again, and give the fans moments you can’t recreate anywhere else. Our friends in Return to Dust will be there too.  Much respect to those guys, and we’re ready to crush this thing together,” adds Lajon Witherspoon of SEVENDUST.

THEORY OF A DEADMAN returns with their hard-hitting new single, “Barricade.” Marking a new chapter for the band, comprising Tyler Connolly, Dave Brenner, Dean Back, and Joey Dandeneau, the track delivers their signature mix of gritty riffs, anthemic hooks, and unfiltered lyricism with a renewed sense of urgency.

Driven by a tense, simmering energy, “Barricade” builds from restrained verses into a massive, cathartic chorus, capturing the push-and-pull emotion at the core of the song while maintaining an undeniable arena-ready punch.

Watch the Official Visualizer for “Barricade” below:

Touring in support of their 15th studio album ‘ONE,’ GRAMMY® Award–nominated metal icons Sevendust prove once again why they remain a vital force nearly three decades into their career. Comprised of Lajon Witherspoon (vocals), Clint Lowery (guitar), John Connolly (guitar), Vince Hornsby (bass), and Morgan Rose (drums), the band once again delivers the signature sound that has earned them both critical acclaim and a fiercely loyal fanbase. Early reviews of ‘ONE’ make it clear: Sevendust has not lost their edge.

‘ONE’ is now available via Napalm Records in multiple configurations, including digital downloads now: http://lnk.to/Sevendust-One.
