Texas’ psyche boogie ‘n blues trio Wo Fat has announced that they will be embarking on a tour of the Eastern United States this June. The tour will consist of 8 dates and will culminate with the band’s appearance at the Maryland Doomfest 2017. The band commented:
“We’re stoked to be doing this short tour with our fellow Texas rockers, The Well. We don’t do a whole lot of US touring so this is a special thing for us. We’re excited to be hitting some places that we’ve never played before and of course, we’re honored to be included in the killer Maryland Doom Fest lineup.”
All dates are in support of their album ‘Midnight Cometh’ which was released on Ripple Music in 2016. You can order the album here.
On a personal note, Wo Fat is one of several of my own must-see acts at Maryland Doom Fest III this year. I’ve never seen them live before, despite being a huge fan of the band’s since their earliest releases. Here are the dates you too can catch them on in June:
