🚨NEW PORTSMOUTH GIG ANNOUNCEMENT🚨
With the help of Doomstar bookings, we're bringing TRAVELER (Can) to the Edge of the Wedge in Portsmouth! 🔥
Formed in 2017 in Canada, Traveler released the same-titled debut full-length in 2019, meeting a mind-blowing response from fans and media. Just after one year, the sophomore album "Termination Shock" was released, and within a few years, Traveler established themselves as a powerful live act, storming the stages of Canada, the United States and Europe. The new album "Prequel of Madness" is the band's best release so far, including anthemic hits, speed metal dynamites and pure heavy metal passion; a highlight for 2024 and the years to come. 🍻
They'll be supported by true metal warriors Hanowar, performing a special Hail to England/Sign of the Hammer set!
Riding across the bridge of death, scaling the mountains of majesty, and using as many Manowar song titles as they can, Hanowar are bringing violence and bloodshed with them as they lay down their battle! The steel of the true shall pierce the heavens themselves as the spinecrushing riffs erupt from their guitars, forged from the river of steel!
This is sure to be an absolute rager, tix available in the bio!

🕐MAY 20TH SET TIMES!🕖
🦖The gig is tomorrow!
-------SET TIMES--------------
🗡18:00 Doors
🗡19:30 Druidess
🗡20:15 Beware The Moonshine
🗡21:15 Smoulder
For those curious (I'm sure some will be), the gap between doors and the first band is for people who can get there earlier to be able to relax with a drink whilst also trying to ensure that people who will be at work won't have to rush too hard in order to not miss the first band. Just a nice relaxing chill time.
Looking forward to this one, there's still some tickets available and don't forget the price goes up if you leave it till the door!
