Hot on the vapour trail of their chart-topping album 'Beautiful Machine', the finely-tuned rhythm-and-power unit Shihad are thrilled to announce a return home for a national tour in July.

The 'Beautiful Machine' Tour will see the group play six cities across New Zealand.

Those who missed the band's triumphant headline slot at April's Homegrown Festival now have another chance to experience Shihad in what is fast shaping up to be the groups' most successful and unforgettable year so far.

Support acts on all tour dates will be ex-pat heroes The Mint Chicks, returning from Portland, Oregon for their second NZ visit of 2008; and Luger Boa, the hard-hitting new act formed by Jimmy Xmas, formerly of the D4.

All shows will be MC'ed by Mr Dai Henwood, of TV's C4
