In the organizer's words:

Stoned Jesus & Wheel on co-headline tour in Germany in spring 2026

From the end of March 2026, two of Europe's most exciting prog and heavy metal bands will be coming to Germany together for six dates: Stoned Jesus and Wheel will be co-headlining their "Spring Equinox European Tour 2026". Fans can look forward to a powerful mix of virtuoso riffs, catchy melodies and an intense stage presence that will delight both long-time fans of the bands and new listeners alike. Stoned Jesus, based in Kiev since their formation in 2009, have made a name for themselves worldwide with their unmistakable mix of doom, grunge and progressive rock. Albums such as "Seven Thunders Roar" and "The Harvest" show the band in top form, combined with a live energy that has doubled their fan base in just a few months and has now grown to almost 500 concerts. Whether at major festivals or in intimate clubs, the band has established itself as a guarantee for rousing shows and has shared stages with the likes of Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Slayer and Rammstein. The Ukrainian musicians have managed to continuously develop their own sound while retaining their characteristic style.
Wheel from Helsinki have been an insider tip since their formation in 2015, quickly becoming an international prog metal phenomenon. With their third album "Charismatic Leaders", they have taken their musical spectrum to a new level. The album addresses current political and social issues, while powerful riffs, complex structures and dynamic arrangements dominate the stage. On their debut "Moving Backwards" and its successor "Resident Human", the trio thrilled fans worldwide, from Tool to Coheed & Cambria, proving that progressive metal can be emotional, intelligent and accessible at the same time.
"The Spring Equinox European Tour 2026" promises to combine the strengths of both bands. Stoned Jesus will showcase their psychedelic heaviness and punchy live sets, while Wheel will provide intense moments with their dark yet energetic prog metal attitude. Together, they offer an experience that contains everything from deep lyrics to social issues to hypnotizing guitar riffs that make the heart of a metal and rock fan beat faster. Fans of heavy, doom and progressive metal should take advantage of the unique opportunity to experience these two outstanding bands in one evening and not miss out on tickets for one of the six dates.
