Biffy Clyro’s Simon Neil Announces Tour With New Band

3 Intimate Shows is All The UK’s Getting From Empire State Bastard

But my goodness is there a brewing, bubbling anticipation for the Biffy Clyro frontman’s four piece performance later this month. Stating the restlessness that settles in around Biffy’s heavy touring schedule, Neil expressed his need to pursue Empire State Bastard for both musical exploration and subsequently returning love for Biffy. Featuring Mike Vennart on guitar, Dave Lomardo (Slayer, Fantomas, Testament) on drums and Naomi Maclead on bass they debut on the 26th in Glasgow before heading down to Manchester then to London in back to back dates. Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday 3rd. It’ll be a far cry from headlining Download festival for Neil but with no material released as of yet, it’s any rockers guess as to what treats are in store.

 

 

As for Biffy, no upcoming touring has been released nor news of any new material dropping. After their last 2021 album ‘The Myth of The Happily Ever After’ and following hour long Amazon Prime special documenting the making of the record titled ‘Cultural Sons of Scotland’, it’s anyones guess.
