STARSET Hits Baltimore On Tuesday, February 14 In Support Of New Album 'Vessels'

Coinciding with the release of their sophomore album VESSELS, cinematic rock band STARSET is heading out on a U.S. headlining tour this winter. The four-week outing, featuring direct support from Gemini Syndrome, stops in BALTIMORE on TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 14 at BALTIMORE SOUNDSTAGE. Tickets go on sale tomorrow Friday, December 9.

 

 

“We look forward to the freedom that headlining will bring – allowing us to further realize our sonic and visual objectives.  This will be the most immersive series of ‘demonstrations’ to date,” says front man Dustin Bates.

 

VESSELS–set for release January 20, 2017 via Razor & Tie–is a data-stream rendered in sound where Bates becomes the deus-ex-machina in an age of information overload that is increasingly complex yet ultimately human. From atmospheric opener, “Back To The Earth” to the driving hooks of the album’s first single, “Monster” to the catchy, nearly progressive moments of “Frequency,” Bates has succeeded in escaping the gravity of formula radio rock. Instead, he has re-imagined his genre-defying vision as an arena where Hans Zimmer interfaces with Radiohead and Trent Reznor. VESSELS was produced by Rob Graves (Halestorm, Red) and mixed by Ben Grosse (Breaking Benjamin, Filter), who also helmed their 2014 Razor & Tie debut, Transmissions, a landmark album selling in excess of a quarter million combined albums, streams and downloads, and propelled by singles including the unforgettable “My Demons” (which spent an unprecedented 43 weeks scaling rock charts).

 

Watch the official audio video for “Monster” HERE, which has already amassed over 1.4 million views since its October 28 release.

 

With over 300 shows logged to date, STARSET–front man Dustin Bates and his helmeted-and-pressure-suited crew, bassist Ron DeChant, guitarist Brock Richards and drummer Adam Gilbert–has distinguished themselves touring with the likes of Breaking Benjamin and In This Moment, playing major U.S. rock festivals and four sold out performances in planetariums, becoming the first rock band to play live in the full dome entertainment environment. This spring, the band will return to Welcome To Rockville, Fort Rock, Carolina Rebellion and Rock On the Range, the famed rock festival in the band’s hometown of Columbus, OH, following their 2015 debut at all four events.
