Just hours before they stepped on staged to kick off their Spring Greens Tour, on the heels of the announcement for their highly anticipated new album, Count Me In, Rebelution has announced the initial details surrounding their Count Me In Summer Tour!
2013 was another big year for Rebelution. On the road basically non-stop from February through September, the band not only toured throughout North America but they performed on multiple continents, and at several major music festivals, including a headlining appearance at the California Roots Festival, two sets at Wakarusa, and a spot at Glastonbury. With all this time out on tour its a wonder, the band was able to find time to put together another record to release in 2014.
With the release of their forthcoming record Count Me In, set for June 10th via Rebelution’s own label, 87 Music, in partnership with Easy Star Records, it seems as if this year may be Rebelutios’s biggest year yet.
