Chiodos On Tour With MxPx

By Leave a Comment

Chiodos will be taking MxPx out on tour with them in April. A message from the band can be read below.

We are more than excited to announce that we will be headlining for a couple of weeks here in the US, during the month of April…

Now for the exciting part of the news…

We will be bringing out one of the main reasons that we are a band, MXPX.

If it wasn’t for this band, then Matt and I would have never met…thus Chiodos never starting. So you can understand how excited all of us are. They just released a new record last summer, called Secret Weapon. Pick it up(because it rules), and get stoked for these dates to be announced!

More to come.
