COMPELLING HARD ROCKERS 10 YEARS TO EMBARK ON "CUTTING LIKE KNIVES" HEADLINING TOUR

GUEST BASSIST FAIR TO MIDLAND'S RYAN COLLIER TO JOIN

Within weeks of the release of their new album, MINUS THE MACHINE, compelling hard rockers 10 Years are getting ready to hit the road again for an extensive headlining tour of the United States. The "Cutting Like Knives" tour will feature support from The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and The Last Place You Look. With 10 Years for this run will be guest bassist Ryan Collier of the American prog rock band Fair To Midland, temporarily replacing Lewis Cosby, who will be taking time off to prepare for the birth of his first child. Guitarist/drummer Brian Vodinh commented, "We are really excited to be embarking on this tour with some old friends in The Last Place You Look and some new friends in The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. Rehearsals have gone amazing with Ryan Collier on bass and we will be playing some brand new songs that we have not played live yet, so we hope to see some familiar faces and a lot of new ones at the shows!" Please see below for tour dates.

10 Years' fifth full-length offering, and their first self-released album, MINUS THE MACHINE, recently debuted at #26 on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart, with nearly 12,000 copies sold in its first week of release. The aptly-titled CD was released on their own label Palehorse Records, in partnership with Warner Music Group's Independent Label Group (ILG); 10 Years self-produced the album and it was recorded in drummer/guitarist Brian Vodinh's home studio. Check out the video for first single "Backlash" here; the track is currently in the Top 20 at Active Rock radio.
