Tickets are priced from about $17 to about $25 for various dates, according to Roadrunner Records’ official website. Rock acts Mad at Gravity and Comes with the Fall will open.
Cantrell, guitarist and founding member of the ‘90s grunge band Alice in Chains, is supporting his June release, ”Degradation Trip.” The album features the hit single “Anger Rising,” which Cantrell’s official website offers as a free mp3 download.
“Degradation Trip"--which is the follow up to Cantrell’s 1998 solo debut, “Boggy Depot"--hit stores just a couple of months after Alice in Chains frontman Layne Staley died from a drug overdose. The group had not released an album of new material since 1995’s “Alice in Chains,” its third full-length studio effort.
Mad at Gravity released its debut CD, “Resonance,” on July 16. The album features the cut “Walk Away.”
