Clutch Announces First Set of Dates

w/ Bakerton Group and Red Fang!

That sure was fast! Not one week after we heard rumors of a Clutch / Bakerton Group US Tour, we're handed the first set of dates for this monster, and holy **** is it going to be a monster.

Set to take place around the release of the debut full length, "El Rojo," by side-project band The Bakerton Group, Clutch and TBG have confirmed a-hunka-hunka US tour-dates, first taking it to the heart of all things Clutch... West Virginia to Madison, Portland to Pennsylvania. Rounding out the bill for the upcoming dates are fellow axe-shredders Red Fang and Willem Maker.
