Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! announce spring U.S. headline tour
Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! is excited to announce their first North American headline run this spring, with support from Handguns, State Champs, and City Lights.
Touring in support of debut album Something For Nothing, The “Pardon My French” Tour is the band’s first 2013 U.S. trek since their fall run with Woe, Is Me, and is set to kick off on March 11 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
“We are so stoked to play our first headline tour in the States! Also, this is gonna be our first pop-punk tour so we’re very excited to play in front of a new crowd,” explains lead singer Bertrand Poncet. “We just want this tour to be a giant party every night, it’s gonna be just small venues with no barriers and cheap tickets. People can expect craziness, tons of stage dives, it’s gonna be wild!”
The band is currently in the studio working on their second full-length, anticipated for a late-spring release. Check out the announcement video below:
