More than half the tour is comprised of Canadian dates.

Veteran hard-rock act Godsmack look to stay busy in 2019. After previously announcing six-week tour of Europe, the Massachusetts band revealed today that they will be hitting the road with Danish rockers Volbeat in North America in the spring.

The trek kicks off with a trio of Godsmack festival dates in early April, but then jumps into a regular schedule of shows with Volbeat on April 16h at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. The run finishes up May 11th at Videotron Centre in Quebec City, Quebec. While Godsmack will headline several of the dates, a number of the Canadian shows will be co-headlining gigs with Volbeat.

Godsmack released their most recent album, When Legends Rise, this past April. The disc hit the top 10 of the Billboard 200 upon release and was No. 1 on the Top Rock Albums, Top Hard Music Albums, Top Alternative Albums, and Top Independent Albums charts.

As for Volbeat, this Friday (December 14th), the group will release Let’s Boogie! Live From Telia Parken, a CD and concert film that commemorates their show at the titular soccer stadium in Copenhagen. The quartet were the first hometown band to headline and sell out that venue, drawing in over 48,000 fans.

Meanwhile, Godsmack’s 2019 European tour makes up for a fall 2018 trek the band had to postpone following the death of guitarist Tony Rombola’s adult son.
