Sound Of Contact postpone tour

Upcoming live shows cancelled, new shows expected for 2014

Sound Of Contact have released an incredible prog album earlier this year, called Dimensionaut. The band performed a couple of shows with Spock's Beard and Breadfish and recently they also played at the famous Night Of The Prog Festival in Germany, where they premiered a live version of Möbius Slip.

The plan was to continue with the Yestival in August and the Bring The Prog Back tour that would follow. Both is not going to happen. Sound Of Contact have made an aofficial announcement on facebook:

Dear friends and fans of Sound of Contact!

Due to delays and complications from the US embassy in the UK, Simon Collins and key SOC personnel were unable to obtain work visas in time to perform with Sound of Contact in the upcoming YEStival in Camden, New Jersey this Saturday.

We also deeply regret to inform everyone that as of today, we must postpone our North American tour this August / September until spring next year.

Logistical issues derived from VISA complications and low ticket sales in a few locations have impacted on our ability to effectively honor all dates at this time.

We sincerely apologize for the disappointment and potential inconvenience that this may cause.

Please know that we have every intention of re-grouping and re-scheduling as many of the dates as possible. We look forward to seeing you all next year!

Simon Collins, Dave Kerzner, Matt Dorsey and the SOC Team

We will let you know all news when we have them.
