SONATA ARCTICA Embark On Acoustic Tour Of Europe In March 2019
March 13th, 2019

Kemi, Finland-based melodic metal group Sonata Arctica embarked on an acoustic tour of Europe in March 2019 as part of a trek dubbed Acoustic Adventures. Supporting were Los Angeles, California-based progressive metal band Witherfall.

Sonata Arctica keyboardist Henrik ‘Henkka’ Klingenberg commented ahead of the tour: “We’ve been locked up in the studio since the end of the summer working on our next studio album and decided we needed to take a break and go out and play some shows.

“In the summer of 2016, we did an acoustic summer tour in Finland which was a lot of fun for both us and our fans; in fact, it was so great that we wanted to do it again and this time we’re not settling for just Finland – but taking this show all around Europe for the first time ever.

“Now is a unique chance to hear our music in a completely different setting and we’re sure these evenings will be something really special. Our set will also include some stuff we’ve never played live before, and who knows — maybe even a new song from the upcoming album. See you at the shows!”
