Huntsmen to livestream record release show this Saturday

Chicago metal outfit Huntsmen unveiled their new studio album Mandala of Fear last week, but their touring plans were put on hold. On Saturday (March 21), they’ll be giving fans a treat with a special livestream.

The event, which was announced today, will take place at Treehouse Studios, and it’ll be streamed on Prosthetic Records’ YouTube channel. “We want to make it a special evening and a special event, so on Friday I reached out to Treehouse Studios to see if they’d work with us on this - it’s where we practice and recorded our first record, American Scrap. With the technology available to us, there are now ways to reach our fanbase without doing it face to face; it’s just a matter of getting crafty. To everybody who we won’t see on the road, and those who are new to Huntsmen, we hope you’ll join us on Saturday for this special show,” the band said in a statement. Before their performance, Bruce Lamont will take the stage.

The livestream, which is being sponsored by Metal Monkey Brewing, will begin at 9pm EST (6pm PST).
