Great Electric Quest has announced their plans for a U.S. trek dubbed the ‘Squeelin’ Wheels Tour’. So far, this venture will hit twenty states over two weeks and starts May 24th in Phoenix, AZ at the Valley Bar with Goya, Toke, and Rotting Yellow. Additional support for select dates includes heavyweights Worshipper, Attalla, and Lords of Beacon House.
San Diego, California’s Great Electric Quest has been around a few blocks since beginning their journey of rock ‘n roll in 2010. They’ve released a demo (2013), an EP – ‘Prelude‘ (2015), and most recently their first full-length release ‘Chapter I‘ (2016). Their relentless touring has brought them to many stages, including the Hard Rock Casino’s Vinyl stage during last year’s epic Psycho Las Vegas event weekend.
Set to once again grace the desert with their unique ways of bringing metal to the masses, Great Electric Quest is confirmed to perform at the second Psycho Las Vegas event in August 2017. To warm up their wires, Tyler “T-Sweat” Dingvell (Vocals), Buddy Donner (Guitar), Daniel “MuchoDrums” Velasco (Drums), and Jared Bliss (Bass) are heading out on a course of doom and destruction across the great United States in May and June.
Additional dates are planned but check the confirmed dates below for a show near you while you listen to the Bandcamp stream of ‘Chapter I‘.
