Piston, who we hailed as Ones To Watch earlier this year, join the previously confirmed American blues rock virtuoso Hannah Wicklund & The Steppin Stones and Manchester rock n’ rollers Gorilla Riot on tour tour.

Kicking off at Chester Live Rooms on Thursday 3rd October, the tour calls in at Manchester, Birmingham, Norwich, Newcastle, Leeds and Bristol before culminating at London’s Islington O2 Academy 2 on Friday 11th October.

Each night Piston, Hannah Wicklund & The Steppin Stones and Gorilla Riot will alternate as headliners giving each act their fair share of the limelight.

Tickets to all date are on sale from Planet Rock Tickets now.

Midlands rock n’ roll juggernauts Piston recently premiered their current single ‘Rainmaker’, which is lifted from their self-titled debut album that lands on Friday 13th September ahead of the Roadstars tour.

Fronted by the titular 21-year-old powerhouse guitarist, vocalist and songwriter, Nashville’s Hannah Wicklund & The Steppin Stones have been described as “a kaleidoscope of blazing guitars and searing vocals” by none other than Joe Bonamassa.

Gorilla Riot are a 5-piece dirty rock n’ roll blues machine from Manchester who play raucous blues-based rock, combining elements of grunge, stoner and country to create a full-on high energy rock show.
