Tommy Guerrero played a fundamental role in Californian skateboarding history as a stalwart of the Bones Brigade, Powell Peralta’s zeitgeist-defining skate team. Since retiring from the world of pro skating he’s kept the creativity flowing, completing the transition to a master of melody and dropping solo records seeped in seventies funk and soul.
Levi’s Skateboarding and Huck are stoked to announce Tommy Guerrero’s first ever European Tour: No Mans Land. Throughout April, Tommy will be sweeping across the continent, playing shows in the UK, the Netherlands, France and Spain.
Huck is joining forces with Tommy as tour media partners and will be right beside him as he tears it up all over Europe. Stay locked to Huck for a review of his new album No Mans Land and more.
