Forming in Canada and featuring ex-members of Despised Icon and Blind Witness, Obey The Brave are heading to Australia for the first time this coming August. With the tour kicking off in just over a month, local supports have been announced for each city.
Along with Boris The Blade, they will also be joined by Newcastle’s The Storm Picturesque for all dates. The Storm Picturesque has been touring the country relentlessly for the better part of five years and have just wrapped up a national tour supporting In Hearts Wake. June saw the release of their album Arrivals, and the band show no signs of slowing down with tours planned to see them into 2014.
Two Perth dates have also been added to the tour along with a change of venue for 21st August in Newcastle to Sohier Park Hall in Ourimbah, Central Coast.
Despite having formed a mere 18 months ago, Obey The Brave has already made an impact on the metalcore scene with their debut full length Young Blood released by Epitaph in August last year.
Boasting a strong DIY ethic the band has quickly built a loyal and solid fan base and had a network of over 14,000 fans on Facebook before they had even released a song. Having already toured in 20 countries, Obey The Brave are ready to bring their tight and impressive live show to Australian stages.
