Stray From the Path released their latest album Euthanasia, last September and, after touring most of the world in the last year, are now looking to bring their high energy shows to the UK and Europe. The band will be playing six shows in six different UK cities beginning in November.

Noted for their potent anger that is communicated through the belligerent presence of frontman Drew Dijorio, Stray From the Path have never shied away from delivering socio-politically charged anthems that are reminiscent of prime Rage Against the Machine. Created during the pandemic, Euthanasia is a klaxon call for the disenfranchised, discriminated and overlooked portions of society to stand up for themselves and be counted.

Formed in 2001, the group have been around for awhile but, with only guitarist Tom Williams remaining as an original member, it has taken some time for Stray From the Path to gain the popularity they feel their music (and message) deserves. Relentless touring and popularity through word of mouth has seen the band poised to finally explode onto the scene-headlining dates in their own right.

Stray From the Path may also be notable to UK fans in particular for featuring British based drummer Craig Reynolds. Reynolds has become an ever growing media personality, mainly through his music centred podcast The Downbeat. In between writing, recording and touring with Stray From the Path, Reynolds finds the time to sit down with some of the most interesting and exciting musicians in the world of (mostly) metal, for in depth conversations about their craft, experiences and, in what is a fan favourite, their dream festivals.

Reynolds is often at the centre of intriguing conversations around music and production as well, frequently taking to social media platforms to air his views. In recent months, the drummer made headlines for calling out bands (unnamed) that use backing tracks during live performances. Currently, Reynolds resides in Scotland but divides his time between the UK and the US to devote time to Stray From the Path.

The band recently featured on the Opus Stage at this summer’s Download Festival-a perfect opportunity to gain more UK based followers and give them a taste for what their headlining show promises in the autumn. Recently, the band announced that they had to swap the dates in Manchester and London although any presale tickets already purchased remain valid. General sale tickets go on sale Friday, 23 June.
