Tour News: ZAUM Announce Roadburn Showcase and European Tour (Selected Dates with TELEPATHY)


One of Canada’s top musical exports ZAUM have just released dates for their second European Tour in support of their sophomore album “Eidolon”. The two track 40+ minute full length was released worldwide in October via Swedish based experimental metal label I HATE, garnering 60+ fantastic reviews to date.

The bands fifth trek overseas is comprised by a 16 date tour with instrumental post-doom English quartet Telepathy, spanning mostly the UK and France wrapping up with a showcase at Roadburn -- Europe’s leading underground festival for psychedelic, avant-garde, doom or any other variation of leftfield sonic pleasures that push the boundaries of music.

In their few years as an active band, they’ve unleashed old world inspired “Mantra Doom” throughout 200 tour dates spanning 19 countries, with cities ranging from Vancouver to Moscow. The duo also recently won a Music New Brunswick Award for “Loud Artist Of 2016”, garnered a 2015 ECMA Nomination, and aligned some impressive support stints for heavyweights such as Voivod, Pentagram and Cauldron.

Previous releases include split LP Himalaya To Mesopotamia with Polaris & Juno nominated psychedelic prairie sweethearts Shooting Guns, as well as their debut full length Oracles which has been reviewed 100+ times worldwide to mass critical acclaim.
