Social Media Update: The UK Drum Show Announcement

In 2024, March 28th heralded the announcement that our esteemed drummer, II, would have a masterclass at the UK Drum Show happening on September 29 2024. Due to a unforeseen scheduling conflict, this event ultimately did not include II.

@ theukdrumshow @ mikedolbearcom masterclass room Sunday 29th September 12.00 GMT, 2024. Prepare.

@ theukdrumshow is pleased to announce that @ ii_sleeptoken will be performing in the @ mikedolbearcom room on Sunday the 29th of September 2024 at 12:00PM!
Il is appearing in association with @ dwdrums, @ istanbulagop and @ brdistribution.
Behind the veil of metal’s fastest-rising act, lies uncompromising creative integrity; and Sleep Token’s signature blend of jaw-dropping percussive dexterity and groove can be attributed to the mysterious collective’s II.
Since the start of the band’s journey in 2016, II has sustained an unwavering musical identity through a unique approach to metallic drumming and beyond, tempering the more full-tilt side with influences from a raft of other areas, including gospel, funk, hip hop and jazz influences.
Riding a wave of worldwide acclaim from fans (worshippers) and industry alike, and with sold-out tours and festival headline appearances lined up for 2023, the third Sleep Token studio album, ‘Take Me Back To Eden’, lays waste to and redefines what we understand as ‘metal’.
