In a new interview with Metal Mayhem ROC, April Wine's Brian Greenway discussed the band's upcoming tour with Triumph as part of their 50th anniversary celebration.

The scale of the run is seen as a key opportunity for the band to reassert themselves on the large-scale touring circuit.

Greenway pointed to the arena-sized venues as a chance to "stimulate the audience" and potentially set the stage for future headlining shows.

The tour came together quickly, with April Wine receiving a direct invitation from Triumph to join their show.

According to Greenway, there was no prolonged negotiation or buildup - just a simple yes to the offer.

There's also a natural chemistry between the two camps, rooted in shared history and mutual familiarity.

With audience anticipation mounting for Triumph's return after decades away, April Wine is poised to reintroduce its catalog to a wider audience.

The tour dates with Triumph are listed below: April 22 – Sault Ste.

Marie, ON – GFL Memorial Gardens; April 24 – Toronto, ON – Scotiabank Arena; and so on.

April Wine's dates with Triumph include shows in Canada, the United States, and the UK.

The tour promises to be a significant opportunity for the band to re-establish themselves as a major force in heavy music.
