The River Is Rising-Rest of the World Tour ’24 will officially kick off with the band’s return to Mexico City’s Pepsi Centre WTC, on January 23rd, and will see SMKC hit 21 countries, and 35 cities across the globe. Support on the various dates of SMKC’s The River Is Rising-Rest of the World Tour ‘24 will come from Mammoth WVH, with The Struts and Rose Tattoo opening on the Australia run of shows.
A decade and four albums into their career, the universally acclaimed album 4 –which debuted as the No. 1 Most-Selling Hard Rock Album–is SMKC like you’ve never heard them before. A vibrant rock album fueled by memorable guitar hooks and compelling melodies, big choruses, and even bigger riffs, 4 hits on a wide range of sounds, styles, and moods in 10 songs, and does it all with laser-sharp musical focus and a lightning-in-a-bottle sense of immediacy.
The fourth studio album from SMKC and Slash’s fifth solo album overall, Slash and his bandmates vocalist Myles Kennedy, bassist Todd Kerns, drummer Brent Fitz, and guitarist Frank Sidoris, partnered with producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, John Prine, Jason Isbell, Brandi Carlile), on 4 resulting in the band’s strongest album to date. Recorded at RCA Studio A in Nashville, Cobb shared the band’s desire to lay down the tracks live in the studio–including guitar solos and vocals–revealing a stunning, vital sound and style all captured live.
The album kicks off with the opening track “The River is Rising”—which reached No. 7 on the rock charts, making it the band’s eighth, consecutive Top 10 hit single on radio—is one of the band’s toughest and most dynamic compositions to date, unraveling via a menacing, tightly-coiled riff and deep-in-the-pocket groove. “April Fool” followed the successful first single “The River Is Rising.”
4 is a standout album that grabs hold, and never let’s go, from the deliberate stomp rock of “Whatever Gets You By,” the bright-toned, heart-on-sleeve pop-rocker “Fill My World,” to the talk box-drenched guitar hooks of “C’est La Vie,” exotica-tinged psychedelic fever dream of “Spirit Love,” the anthemic swell of “The Path Less Followed,” to the cowbell-inflected boogie-shake of “Actions Speak Louder Than Words,” the grimy Aerosmith-esque funk of “April Fool,” to the rampaging attack of “Call Off the Dogs,” and climaxing with the epic, six-minute album closer “Fall Back to Earth.”
Additional international tour dates are set to be announced soon.
