Despite everything being cancelled or postponed, Tyr has announced a brand new Heathen Heroes Fall European tour with Arkona, Dalriada Varmia and Varang Nord. We can only hope the trek will go on as scheduled.
Arkona commented:
“Today we announce our big European tour in fall 2020! We will join forces with our friends from Týr, Dalriada, Varmia and Varang Nord for a big run with lots of places we have never been to and places we always love to come back! Can’t wait to get back on the road!
We are aware of the current situation with the travel- and crowd restrictions.
We hope the current efforts of the authorities, and the many responsible people already staying at home or limiting themselves, will stop the spread of the virus.
We will follow the news, the regulations and the recommendations of the authorities. We will not risk anyone’s health or safety.
September is far away, so there is a decent chance the tour will happen.
We want to give our fans something to look forward to.
The more you stay at home – the sooner we can meet again.”

There are plenty of folk-metal bands out there, but few are as interesting as Mongolian quartet Tengger Cavalry. The band formed in 2010, blending nomadic music from Central Asia with metal. Frontman Nature Ganganbeigal is not only versed in Khoomei, or throat singing, but can also play Mongolian nomadic instruments including Montolian horese-head fiddle Morin Khuur, […]
