The Duke of Spook, WEDNESDAY 13 has announced a US tour to celebrate 21 years of his former band, the revered glam punk icons, MURDERDOLLS.
WEDNESDAY 13 and his current band – which features former MURDERDOLLS alumni Roman Surman and Jack Tankersley – will be performing a full set of MURDERDOLLS songs, taken from the band’s celebrated 2002 debut album, ‘Beyond The Valley Of The Murderdolls’ and their 2010 sophomore, ‘Women And Children Last,’ which won them the Revolver Golden Gods Comeback Of The Year’ Award. WEDNESDAY 13 was the frontman and songwriter, alongside guitarist and his creative partner-in-crime, Joey Jordison in the metallic glam punk outfit.
WEDNESDAY comments:
“After 21 years since its release, and the recent sad and premature passing of Joey, it only feels right to go out and celebrate these songs. We made two amazing albums that I was very proud of, and unfortunately much of the world didn’t get a chance to hear the songs live. In 2018, we all got together at Joey’s house and discussed plans and possibilities for the future, but we both had other immediate plans, We will be performing tracks from both MURDERDOLLS albums on this upcoming tour and celebrating the legacy of the band.”
Roman Surman adds:
“We’re really excited to do a tour that Joey would be genuinely happy to see us do.”
