GUN & Kris Barras Band

In the organizer's words:

The two bands GUN and KRIS BARRAS BAND have teamed up for a joint tour in Germany. In October, the promising package of two up-and-coming UK rock bands on their way to the top can be experienced in five cities. GUN & KRIS BARRAS BAND will be playing in Hamburg (6.10.), Munich (8.10.), Aschaffenburg (9.10.), Berlin (10.10.) and Nuremberg (13.10.).

Scottish rock heroes and MTV EMA Award winners GUN recently released their latest album "Hombres" via Cooking Vinyl, which reached the UK Top 10 and #1 in their home country of Scotland and featured prominently in the movie "Damaged" with Samuel L. Jackson. GUN are known for their captivating rock songs with absolute hit potential that have climbed the charts across Europe. The band can look back on four UK Top 20 albums, eight UK Top 40 singles and extensive touring, including memorable performances with the Rolling Stones. "Hombres is on fire." - Classic Rock Magazine.

Jools Gizzi (GUN): "Kris Barras and Gun were both in the UK Top 10 in the same week, against Mark Knopfler and Beyonce, and we felt great to be a rock band. Two rock albums in the UK Top 10 - wow. We've seen Kris go from strength to strength and this double album is going to be very special. It's great that the pre-sale starts on the same day that Germany play Scotland in the European Championships.

KRIS BARRAS BAND is one of the most exciting newcomers in modern hard rock. Their latest album "Halo Effect", their first for legendary UK rock/metal label Earache Records, reached #5 in the UK album charts and #1 in the Rock & Metal UK album charts in April 2024. KRIS BARRAS BAND harnesses the gritty melodies and pounding power that fans of Architects, Shinedown and Alter Bridge love. With 'Halo Effect', they amplify the heavier sound of their last album Death Valley Paradise (which reached a top 30 spot in the UK album charts and had four tracks on Planet Rock Radio's A-List playlist), delivering hard-hitting riffs, soaring choruses and blistering technical solos. "One of the best modern metal albums of recent years with plenty of variety and depth." - Rock Hard

Kris Barras about the tour: "I've been a fan of GUN since the Swagger album and it will be an honor to be on stage with the guys. Germany has some of the best audiences in the world, so I'm very excited to return for our first headlining show since the pandemic. We hope it will be a very special show.
GUN and KRIS BARRAS BAND are setting the bar high for the UK rock highlight in Germany this year with their co-headline tour. A clear "don't miss" to the rock community in Germany.
