After an intensive European tour with Sabaton and Battlebeast earlier this year and while the band are currently on tour in the US with Nightwish, Dutch symphonic metal sensation Delain has confirmed a headlining-tour this fall with stops in the UK, as well as the European hot-spots of France, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary. This special European tour will start at the end of October and wind up in early November.

As special guest on European dates of this run, two of Holland's finest musicians - Ayreon mastermind Arjen Lucassen and vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen - have united for a new project dubbed The Gentle Storm. Anneke will take The Gentle Storm including their new album on the road backed by well known Dutch talents. Arjen, however, will not be part of the live production.
