Up n’ coming UK rockers Western Sand have been confirmed as the opening band on Black Star Riders UK/IRE tour later this year.

Western Sand have just released their self titled debut EP and it’s a scorcher. 4 tracks of ballsy rock’n'roll with more swagger than jagger and a cheeky glimpse of what this young band have to offer demonstrates what to expect later this year. This latest tour announcement continues the bands upward momentum; already Western Sand have supported the likes of Nazareth, Reckless Love, Jettblack, The Treatment, Heavens Basement and Voodoo Six.
