Black Veil Brides and Ville Valo will co-headline a massive tour this fall in select cities across North America. Presented by Hot Topic, the BVB and VV 2023 tour, with special guest Dark Divine, will make a stop in Riverside, California for a show at the Riverside Municipal Auditorium on Friday, October 20.
“We cannot wait to join forces with Ville Valo and give both of our audiences in North America an unforgettable experience each night,” says Black Veil Brides frontman Andy Biersack. “This run has been in the works for quite a while. We couldn’t be happier now that we can finally share the news. Ville is an icon. We have all been fans of his not only for his work in the hugely influential band HIM but as a torchbearer for an entire generation of rock fans and musicians.”
“There’s something tinnitus-inducingly romantic about the idea of being sandwiched nightly between Black Veil Brides and Dark Divine on this autumnal trek across North America,” muses Valo. “And imagining us explore the architecture of doom and gloom from three distinctly different musical perspectives has already made the bats in my belfry suitably ravenous.”
Andy adds, “This tour is a dream come true and will be something special. Dark Divine is new to the scene but garnering a lot of attention quickly and rightfully so. They are hands down one of the best young bands out there, and we are certain the BVB Army and VV fans will love them.”
The co-headlining tour kicks off on September 10 in Louisville, KY and is set to conclude on October 20 in Riverside, CA. The 30 date tour is set to visit cities such as Baltimore, Toronto, Columbus, Austin, and many more. The three bands will be sharing their heavy-hearted melodies and high intensity live performances throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Black Veil Brides began as a hard rock band with rule-breaking features and a gothic vision. The band is now carries a postmodern heavy metal sound and continues to garner an immense fan-base worldwide. Ville Valo has sold over ten million records with renowned Finnish band HIM.
