Last month Emmure announced they would be cancelling their UK tour which included an appearance at this months Slam Dunk Festival. However the festival organisers have now revealed Bury Tomorrow will replace them as special guests.Bury Tomorrow will be playing on the Monster Energy stage alongside headliners Architects, While She Sleeps, Finch and more.
Vocalist Dani Winter-Bates had this to say about the news:
“We as Bury Tomorrow are absolutely stoked to be announced as the special guests for slam dunk. It was a pleasure to headline last year. We can’t wait to bring the pain in a fast paced set. Circle pits galore.”
Whilst festival organiser Ben Ray added:
“After Emmure pulled out of the Festival a few weeks ago due to illness I knew we owed it to the audience to get another big heavy band on the bill. Although we had planned to give them a year off, with Dani & Davyd already at the Festival Djing, it was obvious who I could ask to come to save the day! For this, I hope the public will join me in thanking them.”
