Wage War Announce Fall 2026 “Emergency Broadcast” U.S. Headline Tour

We Came As Romans, Varials, and Cane Hill to support; band’s latest EP It Calls Me By Name out now

Fresh off a successful spring headline run and the release of their It Calls Me By Name EP, Florida metalcore band Wage War have announced the Fall 2026 “Emergency Broadcast” U.S. headline tour.

The extensive trek kicks off October 25 in San Antonio, Texas, and concludes with a hometown performance at Orlando’s Hard Rock Live on November 27. Joining Wage War on the road are metalcore veterans We Came As Romans, hardcore outfit Varials, and New Orleans heavy hitters Cane Hill, making for one of the genre’s strongest touring packages of the year.

The announcement comes as Wage War continue to build momentum following the release of It Calls Me By Name via Fearless Records and their sold-out spring headline dates. The band’s current lineup features Briton Bond (lead vocals), Cody Quistad (rhythm guitar and clean vocals), Seth Blake (lead guitar), Chris Gaylord (bass), and Stephen Kluesener (drums).

Fans can access exclusive VIP packages and artist pre-sales beginning June 9, with additional pre-sales running through June 11 ahead of the general public ticket sale on June 12.
