San Diego, CA – Recent Grammy Nominees, AS I LAY DYING, will continue their mastery of the road into the Spring, hitting cities throughout the US and Canada from Apr-22 thru May-23. Joining Tim, Nick, Phil, Jordan and Josh on this North American run will be friends August Burns Red, Misery Signals & Evergreen Terrace. “It seems like we’ve played with every heavy band under the sun EXCEPT Misery Signals, who are a pretty sick band, so we figured it was about time,” says guitarist Nick Hipa. “As for August Burns Red and Evergreen Terrace, we’re all pretty much joined at the hip.”

With AS I LAY DYING’s latest release, AN OCEAN BETWEEN US, the stakes have been raised. Their previous effort, SHADOWS ARE SECURITY, took them to about 300,000 in sales and took them around the world on such varied tours like TASTE OF CHAOS, OZZFEST, SOUNDS OF THE UNDERGROUND and WARPED TOUR among others. Few bands can speak to such diverse audiences. Media kudos followed, with covers of OUTBURN and METAL EDGE magazines as well as the acceptance of the band into the world of pop culture with recent TV coverage on THE TONIGHT SHOW, THE DAILY HABIT and LA INK among many other outlets.

This will be As I Lay Dying’s first time in nearly 3 years to be playing many of these cities, especially in Canada. They had recently been on festivals that took them into select Canadian markets. “Our shows will definitely be a lot more intimate than what we did on the more festival-style shows.”, says Hipa. “Moshing, crowd surfing, stage diving. I’m sure that will all be taking place more frequently on this tour!”
