The fall tour season just got a little more interesting with the collision of two heavyweight bands, The Expendables and Iration, announcing a co-headlining national tour with Cisco Adler. Last week they announced the tour, this week, they have announced the tour dates…
Besides Iration’s classic hits, fans can hope to hear some of this new music that these bands have set to release. Iration fans are anxiously waiting for the highly anticipated release of their newest album 
Automatic! With new songs like “Porcupine,” “Back Around,” and “Show Me” already hitting the ears of fans at recent shows, Iration is ready to share their new tunes with fans on this tour as well.
Iration vocalist and guitarist Micah Pueschel told The Pier how pumped the band is for the tour. ”We are stoked to be heading out on a co-headline tour with our boys, The Expendables. We’re also pumped to have Cisco Adler supporting. We all have new music and look forward to rocking it in your town!!”
Lead guitarist Raul Bianchi exclusively shared with The Pier his thoughts on the upcoming tour:
“We haven’t been on tour with our good friends in Iration since our first Winter Blackout tour in 2010 so we are excited to get back on the road with them. We just have to make sure that we keep our bus and our liquor cabinet locked. This is gonna be a fun co-headlining tour with us switching off closing. Then we got Cisco to round out the bill. I hadn’t heard much about his new music until he signed on. He has been very versatile musically, with his previous bands Shwayze and Whitestarr, and his new album “Aloha” fits very well with the vibe we are bringing to the tour. It’s gonna be a tour full of high, positive energy and a lot of partying. I don’t recommend anybody miss this tour.”
Opener Cisco Adler is also celebrating the release of his new album Aloha that has a combination of Reggae, Acoustic, Hip Hop with a special guest appearance courtesy of Don Carlos.
On September 12th, the coast-to-coast national tour will kickoff in California’s capital city of Sacramento at Ace of Spades. With 33 shows announced thus far, and additional dates to be revealed in the coming weeks, this will undoubtedly be a memorable tour arriving in a city near you.
