Machine Head Announce Additional Special One-off Shows in North America

The Machine Head crew have been busy working on their seventh studio album titled "Unto The Locust" (out September 26/27, 2011, via Roadrunner Records) for the last year. As they put the final touches to what is one of the most anticipated albums in Heavy Music for 2011. The band have announced a few special one-off shows, before they hit the road as part of the 2011 Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival.

Machine Head will be performing on July 5th at Club Vegas in Salt Lake City, Utah, as well as on July 7th in Reno, Nevada at The Knitting Factory. These dates will mark the first time the band has taken the stage since March of last year after a relentless three years of touring for the critically acclaimed album, "The Blackening".

These shows will be the only two U.S. headline dates in 2011 and both feature the band in an intimate setting, facilitating the kind of close connection with their fans that ignites the crushing live performances that so many of the band’s die-hard fans have come to expect. If you are anywhere near Salt Lake City or Reno, these shows are not to be missed.
