Following the critically acclaimed release of second album “Black Magic: All Mysteries Revealed”, Year Long Disaster announce a run of European dates in June 2010.

Since their formation in late 2004, Year Long Disaster have channeled the bastardized muddy blues stomps of their forefathers and overlaid them with their own flash and drama. Their 2007 self-titled debut landed them tours with The Cult, Velvet Revolver, and the Foo Fighters, as well as praise from critics and fans alike, including Motörhead’s Lemmy Kilmister (with whom they also toured) who told Kerrang! Magazine that “Year Long Disaster plays rock and roll music like rock and roll should be played.”

Year Long Disaster are a stunning live band. Fresh from a support slot with Karma To Burn in April 2010 as well as playing the Dutch Paaspop festival, the band have announced the following dates:

4/6 – Rock am Ring (Germany)
5/6 - Rock im Park (Germany)
6/6 - Berlin – White Trash (Germany)
7/6 - Hamburg – Molotov (Germany)
8/6 - Utrecht – Helling (Holland)
9/6 - Paris – La Maroquinerie (France)
10/6 - London (UK)
11/6 - Download Festival (UK)

Year Long Disaster: Daniel Davies – Guitar/Vocals | Rich Mullins – Bass | Brad Hargreaves – Drums

Shadow Gallery, known purely as a studio band until this point, has released 6 albums while the members juggled other music-related jobs and careers with their recordings. After the lost of their original singer Mike Baker in October 2008 due to a sudden heart attack, the band vowed to honor their fallen band mate and the fans who loved him by moving forward. They found singer Brian Ashland who stepped in to add his own graceful style to “Digital Ghosts”.
