Following the overwhelming support from UK fans for their debut headline shows in London this weekend, Nashville’s ENATION have now announced that they will be supporting Echo & the Bunnymen on their ‘The Stars, The Oceans & The Moon’ tour.

The tour will be hosted by some of the most prestigious halls in Great Britain, including the final sold out show at Royal Albert Hall.
Vocal powerhouse Jonathan Jackson (vocals, guitar, piano), who is also known for his role as Avery Barkley in the hit TV show Nashville, along with his brother Richard Lee Jackson (drums, percussion, backing vocals) and bandmate Jonathan Thatcher (bass, bass synth) are excited to be heading over to the UK and joining Echo & the Bunnymen who have been an influence to their own alternative, post-punk and early new wave sound.

About the tour, Jonathan Jackson says, “We’re absolutely thrilled to be opening for Echo & the Bunnymen! They’ve been a huge influence and inspiration for ENATION. I have immense love and admiration for Ian McCulloch as a singer and songwriter. It’s a dream come true, really.”

With an ever-growing US profile, Billboard hails them as, “A rock band on the rise!”
