Korpiklaani announce Japanese and Chinese tour dates for September!

Finnish folk metal superstars, KORPIKLAANI, have been touring extensively around Russia and their homeland recently. Having just recovered from these enormous trips, the band with singer Jonne Järvelä has today announced a Japanese / Chinese tour for September. But before the Finns will embark on their journey to the "land of the rising sun", they'll be playing a list of festival gigs and releasing a live DVD, which is due to be released in August. All dates can be found below!

Jonne commented: "We've had our longest gig break in 12 years. Our break was 3 months long, but I've been busy with mixing the first KORPIKLAANI DVD, which will come out in August plus setting up an upcoming JONNE "solo album" titled »Kallohonka«. It'll be great to get back on the road after all of these projects, and to Japan after so many years away. It was also a great surprise to get a chance to play some shows in China on the same trip! But first we have several summer festivals to play around the world, so see you there... somewhere. ;-)"
