Los Angeles, CA hardcore band Zulu has been having a huge year and today, they add to it with the announcement of a co-headline tour with Soul Glo (Epitaph Records) that will take them across the United States this fall. Support comes from Atlanta’s Playtime and tickets are on sale on Friday, July 14th at 10 AM local time.
This will be Zulu’s first full US run since the release of their critically acclaimed album A New Tomorrow (March 2023, Flatspot Records). Following a run with Show Me The Body and fresh off a European tour, the band has become known for their fun and chaotic live shows, mixing their mosh-fueled songs with dance-ready interludes. In addition to the tour, Zulu has upcoming performances at The Rumble in Chicago next weekend, The Tribes of Da Moon festival in New York City on August 20th, and Alabama’s Furnace Fest in September.
Formed as a solo project by vocalist Anaiah Lei in 2018 and then joined by guitarist Braxton Marcellous, the Los Angeles-based band has since been rounded out by guitarist Dez Yusuf, bassist Satchel Brown and drummer Christine Cadette. A New Tomorrow serves as the band’s first full-length, after making an early impact with EPs Our Day Will Come (2019) and My People... Hold On (2020). Taking on the task of self-producing the record, the band immersed themselves in collaborator Zach Tuch’s (Dare, Trash Talk) studio in the valley. After spending months toying with different instrumentation and samples, and pulling influences ranging from reggae to death metal, the result is an eclectic 15 tracks. With A New Tomorrow receiving praise across the music space, from NPR and Pitchfork to Revolver and Kerrang, it has allowed the band to tour relentlessly, including a recent run supporting Show Me The Body and performing at festivals on an international scale. As 2023 rolls on, Zulu is looking towards a bright and busy future in hardcore and beyond.
