I Am I to tour UK

I Am I will take a break from studio work to tour the UK in November, they’ve confirmed.

Former Dragonforce singer ZP Theart’s outfit are currently working on the follow-up to 2012 release Event Horizon, which Metal Hammer described as “a promising debut,” adding: “His voice remains as commanding and melodic as ever.”

After a series of lineup changes, described by the mainman as a “normal process,” his colleagues are guitarists Andrew Kopczyk and Gavin Owen, bassist Dean Markham and drummer Rich Smith.

The album is to be released next year. Support on the tour comes from Fahran and Ajenda.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
