Starting this week, Anciients are kicking off their first U.S. tour in 8 years. The heavy, heady and heartfelt Canucks are performing their latest Canadian Grammy-winning opus throughout the American North and Southwest. Along the way, the band will make a few stops down south around their appearance at ProgPower USA. After this month-long run is over, it won't be long before they return to the road.
Today, Anciients are announcing the next leg of their North American tour in support of Beyond the Reach of the Sun. In October and November, the band will bring their new album to Eastern Canada for the first time as well as major cities across the East Coast and Midwest. Joining them for the bulk of these dates are Music City heavy jamming psych-wizards Howling Giant.
"It's been a long time coming", Anciients' frontman Kenny Cook says. "We're ready to hit the road hard!"

"'Is It Your God' asks how someone can believe in a higher power when given a life full of despair and anguish", Cook says. "Do you continue to restrict your happiness while living this life, in hopes of joy for eternity? Or do you question whether it's all for nothing?"
