Less Than Jake
You'd think that almost two full years of near-nonstop touring they would deserve a long break, but that is not the case for our favourite ska/punk/pop pioneers LESS THAN JAKE who are continuing their trek across the Atlantic and into the UK with punk-rap legends Zebrahead.
“We were used to being in the UK and Europe three times a year like clockwork but we took some time away for some new projects,” says LTJ drummer Vinnie Fiorello. “Now we are coming back and can't wait to be back doing a full tour.”
This tour with Zebrahead is special as the bands have been friends for over a decade. “We've known the Zebrahead guys since 1997” says Vinnie “and being able to share a tour with them again makes the journey full circle”.
The affinity between bands is reciprocal, as Zebrahead’s bassist Ben Osmundson adds, “Zebrahead is beyond stoked to be bringing the Peace, Love and Beer back to the UK with our favorite band the almighty Less Than Jake!”. We Are the Union will also be joining the trek along with some new UK talent who have been hand picked by the band themselves to support. Vinnie says “ Some of my favourite young UK bands are joining us on the tour – we are really excited to have them on board”
