Dirt Fest 2012 to Host the Return of Chiodos

It's official, Chiodos is set to return at this year's Dirt Fest! Check out all the details for the band's first big show since reuniting the original lineup.

Recently, news broke that the original lineup of the Davison, Michigan post-hardcore outfit had reunited. We are proud to announce that Dirt Fest 2012 will be the band's official welcome back performance.

The band parted way with singer Craig Owens and drummer Derrick Frost a couple years after the release of 'Bone Palace Ballet', their sophomore album which debuted at #5 on the Billboard 200. Chiodos released another album under vocalist Brandon Bolmer, while Owens released a self-titled disc with Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows (better known as D.R.U.G.S). Now the lineup that recorded the debut album 'All's Well That Ends Well' is back and ready to rock Dirt Fest 2012.

Dirt Fest 2012 features a diverse line up, including headliners Clutch along with Hurt, Otherwise, In This Moment, Royal Bliss, Dead Sara and more. There are still a few surprises left towards the top of the bill, not to mention all the great local rock from It Lies Within, Givensix, Wilson and countless others -- find out more at Dirtfest.com. Come join us August 11th the Birch Run Expo Center for an unforgettablle day of ass kicking rock! Tickets go on sale June 15th.
