Kris Barras Band announce the continuation of their UK 'Halo Effect' tour with a run of shows across the UK in November 2024.

Their recent UK tour hit major cities across the UK as the band campaigned to clinch a top 5 album. Kris Barras Band now extend the tour into some of Kris’ favourite venues to play in towns he doesn’t get the pleasure of visiting quite as often. Barras says “I’m really looking forward to this tour, the UK tour we just finished was just the time of my life, and I know these rooms, these stages and these crowds will not disappoint”.

One of modern hard rock's most exciting breakouts in recent years, Kris Barras Band are bringing all-new arena-sized grit to 2024 with their new album 'Halo Effect' which debuted at Number 5 in the UK official album charts, rubbing shoulders with Beyonce and Linkin Park! Amplifying the heavier sound from their previous album 'Death Valley Paradise' (which in itself saw four tracks added to Planet Rock's A-list playlist), 'Halo Effect' delivers hard-hitting riffs, captivating choruses that soar and fuse-lighting technical solos.

Newly signed to legendary independent label Earache Records, Kris Barras Band harness the twilight-lit melodies and stampeding force beloved by fans of Architects, Shinedown and Alter Bridge. 'Halo Effect', which was recorded at Vada Recording Studios in Worcestershire and co-produced by frontman Barras and long-term collaborator Josiah J. Manning, also features co-writes with Zac Maloy and Blair Daly (Shinedown, Halestorm, Lynyrd Skynyrd). Barras is joined in Kris Barras Band by Manning on guitar, Billy Hammett on drums and latest member Frazer Kerslake on bass.

After an almost-unbelievable career change from pro-MMA fighter of ten years to professional musician, Barras cut his teeth in the international blues rock scene culminating in a frontman spot with supergroup Supersonic Blues Machine (featuring ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons). In the meantime, Kris Barras Band gravitated to a heavier sound that has sold-out tours with Black Stone Cherry, The Darkness and Thunder at the likes of the Royal Albert Hall and Wembley Arena.

Support comes from special guests Scotland’s technicolour norse inspired rockers North Atlas and back by popular demand is Las Vegas’ own The Nocturnal Affair who opened for Kris in April and went down a storm.
