NEWS: Massive Wagons Announce Further UK Tour Dates & Join The Dead Daisies As Special Guests

Off the back of an extremely active 2018, UK five-piece anthemic rock act, Massive Wagons, are pleased to announce further UK shows as special guest to the super-group The Dead Daises. The band played tirelessly throughout 2018 selling out multiple shows (including The Borderline in London), and affirming their live presence on important stages such as: Camden Rocks, Download Festival, Boomtown, and also alongside the likes of Status Quo and Blackberry Smoke.

Praise for the forthcoming album “Full Nelson”

• ‘It’s a powerfully honest and fully convincing arrival’  – Planet Rock
•  ‘Hot as English mustard’ – Classic Rock
• ‘The album is great start to finish’ – Powerplay

Frontman Baz says:

“These four shows with the Dead Daisies are going to round off in spectacular fashion probably our most productive year yet. I think the music of both bands will provide fans with exciting explosive shows. It’s gonna be a good time: riff laden, bang your head as hard as you can pure rock ‘n’ roll madness! Thanks to the guys for having us along: Liverpool, Oxford and Islington are gonna get it. Rest assured!’

The band released their fourth album “Full Nelson” worldwide on August 10^th, via Earache Records (The Temperance Movement, Blackberry Smoke, Rival Sons).  Led by the charismatic frontman Baz Mills, Massive Wagons forthcoming record “Full Nelson” showcases the evolution of the band’s song writing both sonically and lyrically. From the rock driven opener “Under No Illusion” to the bluesy feel of “Sunshine Smile”, from the slower, passionate and heart-felt “Northern Boy” to the heavier “Robot (Trust In Me)”, this is an album of crafted songs and intense performance. “Robot (Trust In Me)” was also produced by Mike Exeter (Black Sabbath, Judas Priest).
