Alter Bridge have extended their tour in support of upcoming album The Last Hero, with the addition of further North American dates.

The follow-up to 2014’s Fortress arrives on October 7 via Napalm Records. The band this week released lead track Show Me A Leader.

Frontman Myles Kennedy said of the single: “This song doesn’t push an agenda – it simply expresses a very common sense of disillusionment people seem to be feeling at this point in time.”

Their latest tour dates take place ahead of a European run in November, with Volbeat and Gojira, and follow their current North American commitments.
