The Aristocrats list Euro tour

The Aristocrats have announced a European winter tour which includes six UK dates.

The jaunt kicks off in Germany on November 16 and runs through to December 20 where it wraps up in France.

They release third album Tres Caballeros on June 29 and guitarist Guthrie Govan previously explained how they road tested the songs before going into the studio.

He said: “We’ve learned a lot since we started this band – four years, three studio albums, two live DVDs and about a billion notes ago – and I think our latest offering reflects this in all kinds of ways.”

Before the European dates, the band tour North America and they say a second run of European dates will be announced for early 2016.
