FLATFOOT 56 is set to blast through the summer with a whirlwind of energy and
action as they bring their spirited Celtic-punk to fans around the globe. The Chicago foursome has confirmed a number of
special appearances at US and international festivals, that launched last Friday, June 26 with a powerful set at Summerfest in
Milwaukee, WI. Tour stops also include performances at the Cornerstone Festival (July 2 & 3 in Bushnell, IL), Sonshine Festival
(July 16 in Wilmar, MN), Spirit West Coast (July 30 in Monterey, CA), O-F-T Ferropolis Festival (August 21 in Grafenhainiche,
Germany), and Xnoizz Flevofest (August 22 in Flevoland, Netherlands), amongst a mix of additional club appearances, festivals
and events. Complete dates and details follow below.
The upcoming appearances will find FLATFOOT 56 showcasing the band’s eclectic mix of punk and folk-tinged hardcore from their
two releases—the debut full-length Knuckles Up as well as 2007’s celebrated
album Jungle Of The Midwest Sea—along with a taste of new material that the boys recently recorded for a forthcoming
full-length album. Details on that release will be announced at a later date.
