Back to Brazil!  Shadowside is back home after another international tour! The band has performed a long series of successful concerts in Europe being part of the Hellish Rock pt. II tour with Helloween and Gamma Ray.
With a repertoire based mainly on the highly praised album "Inner Monster Out", Dani Nolden (vocals), Raphael Mattos (guitars), Fabio Carito (bass) and Fabio Buitvidas (drums) drove the fans crazy. In several cities, concerts were sold out. Also, Shadowside had the honor of being the first ever Brazilian Heavy Metal band to perform at L'Olympia in Paris, France, where several international stars have played, such as Janis Joplin, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Brazilian superstars like Elis Regina and Tom Jobim. "It was an exhausting tour, pretty much with no days off, with the whole band focused on the shows, living nothing but music during almost two months. However, we now have the feeling of having participated in something really special! We saw old fans, who we hadn't seen since the 'Dare to Dream' tour in 2009/2010, made lots of new fans and friends and, undoubtedly, we finished the tour with a dream that has come true, which opens up a very exciting future, not only for us but for Brazilian metal as well. We are very grateful to all involved, to Helloween, Gamma Ray and their crew, and obviously, to all the fans who have attended the concerts and screamed with us. Thank you so much!", said Dani Nolden. Now Shadowside prepares for a big exhibition in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The concert happens next May 26th at Via Marquês. This will be the band's first headlining show at the city in 7 years. Several special songs will be played, including some that haven't been in the band's set list for years. A huge stage production is being planned as well. The event also has SupreMa as special guests, releasing their brand new album "Traumatic Scenes". A photo album with daily photos from the tour and other Shadowside activities can be seen at www.facebook.com/shadowsideband Stay tuned for more news and tour dates!
