(June 20, 2012 - Brooklyn, NY) The legendary Hieroglyphics Imperium is excited to announce the Hiero Imperium Summer Tour 2012. The tour kicks off at the House Of Blues in San Diego, California, on July 19th and running a full month with 16 stops, including a number of festival performances, before winding down on August 18th at the Country Saloon in Las Vegas, Nevada. The tour will feature performances by Souls of Mischief, Pep Love and Casual plus some very special guests.
Already, 2012 has been one of Hiero's most active years in recent memory. Individually, Hiero has seen a steady string of solo releases from the crew, including Casual's He Still Think He Raw, Pep Love's Rigmarole, Phesto Dee's Background Check, Tajai's Machine Language, and Opio's Vulture's Wisdom Vol. 2, not to mention some new crew material.
And so, while Hiero is excited to perform all their fan-favorite classics, they're also looking forward to performing their new material. "I'm looking forward to doing the new material the most, with the new albums from Pep, Casual, Opio, Phesto, and me," notes Tajai, adding, "Plus, new Hiero material!"
The tour, which kicks off in July and runs through August, makes 16 stops along the way, including dates in California, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Nevada, and more, including a special hometown performance for Souls Of Mischief. "I'm excited to rock the hometown Art And Soul Festival," remarks Tajai. "Oakland, USA!"
