In This Moment kick off 2009 with a bang as they prepare to embark on a massive North American trek alongside Mudvayne and Nonpoint beginning Feb. 3rd. This tour will be preceded with three headlining dates, which begin tonight at The Clubhouse in Tempe, AZ. The group have also announced a slew of headlining dates throughout the country filling in some gaps between Mudvayne off-dates. Be sure to visit MySpace to view the tour’s itinerary.
This
Mudvayne run comes on the heels of the band’s most successful year yet which saw frontwoman
Maria Brink landing major cover features in Inked, Revolver and Metal Edge (on stands now) as their latest album,
The Dream, debuted at #70 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, marking the group’s first Billboard entry.
In This Moment’s first single, "Forever", tore up the Active Rock charts led by heavy airplay from such tastemaker stations as WCCC (Hartford), KFNK (Seattle), KXTE (Las Vegas), WJJO (Madison) and Sirius’ Octane. This is all while the track "The Great Divide" reined supreme on Sirius’ Hard Attack playlist.
Chris Howorth (guitars) further comments: "It's 2009 and we are fired up! There is no better way to start the year than with a two month tour alongside Mudvayne. We are really looking forward to making new friends with the other bands and ripping it up on stage every night. I really think this tour will open us up to a new group of people who have never heard of us before. Mudvayne is a huge band and it's really cool they are sharing their fans with us and of course we are excited to see our diehard fans again too. It’s gonna be a blast, so come out to a show and join the party."
