Nothing Extra frontman Jonny Hawkins has described a tour with Sleep Token and In This Second because the worst of his life.
From a bus being flooded with rest room water, a pal dying, a key crew member quitting and reveals being cancelled, just about the whole lot that would go flawed on the 2022 American journey did go flawed.
The trek was headlined by In This Second with fundamental help coming from Hawkins’ Nothing Extra and Sleep Token enjoying earlier than them.

“Sleep Token’s bus flooded and all the lavatory stuff backed up so that they had been strolling in it for days. They’d a bus driver that stop and simply left the bus.
“Considered one of our crew man’s actually good pal died. The subsequent day we had somebody not make it due to a flight. Then we had two reveals cancelled – and on and on. Day-after-day was actually a disaster on that tour.”
Regardless of the chaos, Hawkins had fond reminiscences of a minimum of one side of the tour.
He provides: “On the flip aspect, we bought to see Sleep Token blow up in entrance of our eyes. You possibly can simply see it occurring. Folks had been displaying up and had been stoked to be there.
“I will be sincere, I really like the dudes in Sleep Token. Nice band and it was good touring with them. However I actually did not suppose they’d blow up as huge as they did.
“I assumed they’d be a distinct segment band. They’re so conceptual and loads of the music takes loads of endurance. I really feel like they tapped into the horny metallic of Deftones and made it related once more. I really like that about them. They’re a kind of bands….huge threat, huge reward.”
