Canadian Hard Rockers Sumo Cyco are out with Butcher Babies, Nonpoint & Islander on the Kings & Queens tour across the US. When they hit Austin, Texas… You’ll see… Having already been with us earlier this year, the band have announced a run of larger venue UK tour dates in December with CKY and Bullets
Stick To Your Guns will be joined by Counterparts and a “special guest” for a run of UK dates in December.
