COHEED and CAMBRIA Asked to Join "Heaven & Hell" Tour

       MUSIC NEWS - Progressive rockers, Coheed and Cambria, while in the midst of recording their fifth album, are also prepping to play live in front of a diverse audience in 2009.  Creating more visibility in the metal world, as well as the jam and indie circles more than ever. Earlier this year, the band supported the heavy metal group, Slipknot, they now will play a varied festival schedule like Mountain Jam, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits.

They're also announced for the HEAVEN & HELL tour (Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Vinny Appice),  and why note...  Black Sabbath (Dio version) was Claudio and Travis' favorite group growing up, and Claudio's very first concert ; at NYC's Beacon Theater in October of 1992. "The night would prove to be one of the most influential of my life.  I got the overwhelming feeling  that the whole stage was alive--the lights seemed to be as controlled  by the sounds as everyone there, and I would exit the venue that night with a fire lit under me."  Seventeen years later, the C and C will share the stage with their mentors.
