(ABC) Brian "Head" Welch is set to launch the second leg of his first-ever solo U.S. tour in support of his debut album, Save Me From Myself, which was released September 9 on his Driven Music Group label.

With a new band at his side--Scott Von Heldt (guitars), Ralph Patlan (guitars), Michael Valentine (bass), Dan Johnson (drums), Brian Ruedy (keyboards/programming)�Head will embark on another round of dates starting August 14 in Los Angeles, including a free concert in Las Vegas on August 29 at the 20,000 seat Thomas & Mack Arena along with Flyleaf, Blindside, and others.

"The first leg of the tour a couple months ago was a great warm up tour," says Head. "Now we're ready to kick it up a notch. We're coming into my neck of the woods with this West Coast leg and I'm expecting to see a great turn out and a lot of energy at the shows!"

Save Me From Myself, had tremendous sales its first week, making its debut on Billboard's "Top Hard Rock Albums" chart at #13, #7 on Billboard's "Top Independent Albums" chart and #21 on SoundScan's "Top Current Rock Albums" chart.
