Seether, who happen to be from South Africa, is returning in June for a much anticipated tour with four dates.

First, the band will be at the arena at Grand West Casino & Entertainment on 15 June. The next day on 16 June, Seether will be playing at Johannesburg’s Standard Bank Arena. The show four days later on 20 June will be held at Durban’s Wave House. Finally, the tour will come to a close on 21 June at the Port Elizabeth UPE Indoor Sports Center.

The band Seether has not played a concert in South Africa since they were there two years ago. On that tour, they played with great bands such as Metallica, Simple Plan, The Rasmus and Collective Soul. The band, who is known worldwide, will be traveling to South Africa as part of their European tour. When not on tour, they are generally chilling out in Los Angeles.

The leader of the band, Shaun Morgan Welgemoed, said he loves to come back to South Africa to perform. He says it fills him with pride to walk out on the stage and see all of the South African fans in the audience.
