Known for playing many smaller towns often overlooked by major tours, this year's "Small Town America Tour" (Facebook.com/SmallTownAmericaTour) is planning a multi-state, full-production run across the country. Promoters and churches in both small and large towns interested in bring this event to their area are invited to contact JBH Booking Agency (615-671-9323, Info@JBHBooking.com) as the agency is building the full itinerary for the 35- to 40-city tour now.

Seventh Day Slumber's guitarist Jeremy Holderfield explains the premise behind the acclaimed tour: "We know larger tours skip over the small towns because they believe there won't be a big turnout. Well, we love the small towns and believe it's the heart of America. So once a year we do this tour specifically geared toward small communities and smaller churches. We lower our costs as much as possible and put on the BIGGEST concert we possibly can. It's an awesome opportunity for small towns to get a big tour with big bands at an affordable cost. Larger towns are still welcome to participate of course!"

"Fireflight is so excited to join Seventh Day Slumber on 'The Small Town America Tour' this fall!" exclaims Fireflight guitarist Glenn Drennen. "One of our very first tours as a baby band was with SDS and we have a lot of history and memories with those guys! We cannot wait to usher in the next era of Fireflight and bring the music of INNOVA to the public on 'The Small Town America Tour!'"

About Fireflight
After building a fiercely devoted following across four albums pushed through the major label system, including The Healing Of Harms, Unbreakable, For Those Who Wait (which cracked Billboard's Top 100) and the No. 1 Christian Rock album, Now, which surfaced in Spring 2012, Fireflight readies its 5th full-length album celebrating the 15th year of the band. Its first new album in over three years, INNOVA is a masterful step forward utilizing the innovative tools available to established bands in 2015, while building on a storied history that includes a Grammy nomination, major festivals and nearly 400,000 albums sold. INNOVA will be releasing independently through The Fuel Music May 5, 2015, and has already sparked the band's 8th No. 1 hit, "Resuscitate." Refined during a season of pain, uncertainty and frustration, the upcoming album stretches the limits of its art, reinventing itself while continuing to connect with its fans on a personal level.
