Critically acclaimed hard rockers The Treatment started their 14-date UK tour on 27 April at Norwich Waterfront.  The tour continues until 13 May when they play London’s O2 Islington Academy.  Special guest on the tour is The Amorettes.

The band’s latest album ‘Generation Me’ was released by Frontiers Music SRL  in March.  It is their third album and the first to feature new lead singer Mitchel Emms and new guitarist Tao Grey.

The band formed in Cambridge in 2008 and Get Ready to ROCK!’s Jason Ritchie described the new album: “…with a new vocalist coupled with a set of catchy hard rock tunes, this is their best album to date and one with plenty to entertain rock fans of all ages”.  It has been in regular rotation on the website’s radio station for several weeks.

The band’s debut album was released in 2011 – This Might Hurt – and since then they have played numerous festivals including Sonisphere, Download and most recently, Steelhouse, and toured extensively with Alice Cooper, Steel Panther, Kiss, Motley Crue, Slash, and W.A.S.P.

Line-Up: Mitchel Emms (vocals)/ Tagore Grey (guitar)/ Tao Grey (guitar)/ Dhani Mansworth (drums)/ Rick ‘Swoggle’ Newman (bass)
