Long Beach, CA hard rockers, Sunflower Dead, recently announced their tour with headliners Powerman 5000 and (Hed) PE. The tour visits 27 U.S. cities throughout the month of August, coming to a close in Grand Rapids, MI on August 30th. The tour also features a stop at DirtFest in Birch Run, MI on August 9th. Speaking about Roland accordions and parking in New Jersey, Michael Del Pizzo, Sunflower Dead’s front man, hit us from BB Kings’ in New York, NY.
Sunflower Dead released their self-titled album in 2012 to great reviews. Track two on the album, entitled “Wasted,” was recently remixed by producer Eddie Wohl (Fuel, Anthrax, Ill Nino) and boasts the new new music found below. Three-fifths of this band rise from the ashes of former nationally recognized touring acts Droid and Two Hit Creeper. They are rounded out by additional band members who have toured internationally with Buckethead, In This Moment and Memento.
