The last year has been busy for Vancouver's State Of Shock. The quintet toured the country with Nickelback and Puddle of Mudd last summer. They won two Canadian Radio Music Awards and a Canadian Independent Music Award for their multi-format smash, "Money Honey." They were also nominated for best new group at last month's Juno Awards. Now, they're heading out on their first headlining tour.

Singer Cameron Melnyk, bassist/vocalist Alison Toews, guitarist/vocalist Jesse Wainwright, guitarist/vocalist Simon Clow and drummer John Philippon will launch their tour on May 22 in Victoria and play through June 10 in Regina. They'll take the recently reformed Econoline Crush along as their special guests. More shows will be added.
