SAWA – Dead Cross

Dead Cross was formed in late 2015 with Gabe Serbian on vocals. After a handful of shows with Serbian, Patton took over as frontman in December 2016.

Dead Cross’ self-titled debut album is due out Aug. 4.

“Easily the snottiest record the Faith No More and Mr. Bungle frontman has made in years, Dead Cross contains 10 charging, head-spinning ragers … that whirr by in just 28 minutes,” Rolling Stone’s Kory Grow writes. 

The tour starts in Santa Ana, Calif., Aug. 10 with a gig at The Observatory. Then the band heads to Las Vegas, Phoenix, Dallas, Houston and Austin. 

Other stops include Boston, New York, Detroit, Chicago and Milwaukee. The last gig on the books is Denver’s Ogden Theatre Sept. 23. Special guests are yet to be announced.

Tickets go on sale May 25 at 10 a.m. local time.
