From Loma Prieta...
The Loma Prieta Australia tour has been cancelled.
We hadn't been able to get in touch with the promotor for weeks now. We have only heard from him once in the past 2 months. We tried reaching out through email to find it bounce back. We tried with texts and phone calls and got nothing. We spoke with as many other promoters as possible and they all said the same thing. We tried getting in touch with him through his friends but had no response. We were completely at a loss of how to reach him and had no idea what was going on.
It wasn't until we messaged him on Facebook last week that he finally got back to us today from a new email address. He said that the tour is cancelled. Had we have known this months ago we could have figured out the logistics to get ourselves to Australia.
We have not seen any money to date and if you have purchased a pre-sale ticket to any of the shows, please contact the promotor, on his new email, for a full refund – This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
After 12 years as a band, we've been so lucky to be a part of this community. We want to thank all of our friends who have come through for us so many times in the past.
With that said, we wanted to also apologize to our friend Simon that had booked us a tour in New Zealand that has subsequently been cancelled as well.
Our apologies for these circumstances that were beyond our control.
Love always,
Loma Prieta
Formed in 2005, Loma Prieta have been a mainstay of the Bay Area hardcore community for more than a decade. In that time they have released four 12 inch records and two 7 inch records mostly on their own label, Discos Huelga.
They have also toured the U.S., Japan, Canada, and Mexico numerous times, all while members play in several other hardcore bands (Punch, Beau Navire, Archeopteryx, Us Haunted Bodies).
Having toured Australia back in 2012 with Raein, Loma Prieta are set to return with their latest release, 'Self Portrait' in tow.
