RIVAL SONS ANNOUNCE U.S. TOUR INCLUDING SHOWS WITH SAMMY HAGAR

RIVAL SONS have confirmed dates for a US tour, including a number of shows with rock legend SAMMY HAGAR (MONTROSE, VAN HALEN, CHICKENFOOT).

RIVAL SONS will be kicking off their tour on August 20th with a number of headlining dates, and have also been invited to perform a select number of shows with one of their heroes, SAMMY HAGAR, on his "Four Decades of Rock" summer tour.

RIVAL SONS guitarist SCOTT HOLIDAY comments:

"Well, we're finally hitting our homeland for a handful of tour dates.  Ask and ye shall receive!  And what a cool thing to get to go out and support a legend and super cool fella like Mr. Sammy Hagar.  I think this one's gonna be a blast!"

SAMMY HAGAR, himself a long-time fan of RIVAL SONS, comments:

"These guys are the real thing.  Their first CD was great, showing off a lot of styles from the '60s, '70s and '80s.  These boys have done their homework... now road-tested.  The Sons have made a CD (HEAD DOWN) that truly lives up to the band's name.  This is a giant step from a great previous CD... not easy.  But for those that like classic rock but are tired of the same old songs, I highly recommend this CD... and even better, go see 'em live - they deliver."
