The group will be fronted by legendary Sunset Strip veteran - TUFF vocalist Stevie Rachelle. Also on board will be TUFF member Jimi Lord who played drums with the band during the “Religious Fix” years. The bookends on bass & guitar will be SHAMELESS master mind Alexx Michael & his partner in crime BC as well as Andy Brings (Ex-Sodom & Tracii Lords) . The set will be filled with TUFF classics from their Glam Rock debut “What Comes Around…Goes Around”. Songs will include “The All New Generation”, “I Hate Kissing You Goodbye”, “Good Guys Wear Black” and the global mega smash “American Hair Band”. The SHAMELESS tracks to be featured are “Non Stop City”, “Steal The Girlz” & the Munich based bands most downloaded track, “Queen For A Day” and many more.
The groups past tours have featured Bruce Kulick of KISS (2000), Steve Summers of Pretty Boy Floyd (2002, 2003, 2007) and Davy Vain of VAIN showed up and jammed with the group in Germany (2009). This year will be no different, as the tour looks to have a special guest or two performing on select shows. This tour is not the first for TUFF-SHAMELESS in Europe, but it will be the first ever Scandinavian appearance for either band when the tour wraps up at Sweden’s “Stockholm Rockout Festival” on Saturday September 11th.
“There is a reason for us doing these European tours” says the TUFF singer. “The fans love it. They came to see us in the past, and they will be back again this year.” The fans ultimately get two bands in one and really appreciate the vast amount of great pop glam rock songs. TUFF & SHAMELESS combined have released over a dozen discs of music, and a catalog of over 20 releases (including DVDs) in the last 20 years.
“We are beyond excited to play for our European fans, but Sweden will be a new stop and we cannot wait.” adds Alexx Michael “We have friends and fans on every continent and I vow that South America and Japan are next!” The tour currently has dates slated now for Germany, Switzerland, Italy & Sweden. Possible appearances in Belgium, Denmark & the Czech Republic. Stay tuned for exact dates, locations and developments in the coming days!
