Skillet

After playing main stage at Download Festival 2014 and supporting Nickelback, Skillet have announced their debut headline UK Tour.

Skillet recently made headlines when their last album, Awake, became one of just three rock albums to be certified platinum in 2012, forming an improbable triumvirate with the Black Keys' El Camino and Mumford & Sons' Babel.

The news that Skillet had sold more than a million albums in the U.S. came as a shock to all but the band's wildly diverse horde of fans, male and female, young and old-known as Panheads-whose still-swelling ranks now officially number in the seven-digit range.

This remarkable achievement was announced just as Skillet were putting the finishing touches on their eagerly awaited follow-up album.
