Welsh ragga metal mob Skindred have announced a UK tour for this Autumn. Dubbed the ‘Detour’, it will see the quartet play in towns and cities that many bands of their stature rarely hit up.
“We as a band are extremely conscientious about venturing outside of just the major UK cities to spread the Skindred sound. This October, the “Detour” is our attempt to do just that,” commented Skindred drummer Arya Goggin. “As a band we love to play live, but there are so many amazing towns and cities with fantastic venues across the country that get forgotten and need to be supported. That’s where our “Detour” comes in! We can’t wait to head back out across the UK this October on our “Detour.” See you there!”
The ‘Detour’ follows a busy 2024 for Skindred, which saw them ride a wave of momentum off the back 2023’s ‘Smile’. The album reached the UK album chart at No.2. Alongside playing various festivals last summer, they also bagged the Best Alternative Music Act Award at the MOBOs, and won Best UK Act at the Heavy Music Awards.
