Sludgehammer Announce Tour Dates
Formed in 2013, Sludgehammer, a 5 piece Canadian metal band has been making waves in the music scene. Starting out with members Jeff Wilson (guitarist) and Fernando Villalobos (drums), they found vocalist Chris Szarota, who possessed an astonishing vocal ferocity and bassist and vocalist Dan Ayers, who also revealed a golden voice.
