LOS ANGELES, California — Just in time for you to mark your calendars for 2024… ready, set, go!

Hey everyone, Stevie Rachelle here with an update from sunny Southern California on a beautiful December morning.

I have all kinds of exciting news to tell you about and I will start with some solo shows that I have starting this coming week in Peru!

For the first time ever, I will be appearing in Lima Peru on December 7th 2023, with Ted Poley of Danger Danger and Miljenko of Steelheart.

We’re on a 3 singers bill and I am stoked to be included, can’t wait and see you soon Peru!

Next up, I will be returning to Thailand in January, and have a few shows booked in Bangkok and Pattaya, see the calendar below.

I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed my last trip to Thailand about a year ago, and the experience was amazing and then-some… looking forward to my return.

In early March, Tuff will head south to Miami Florida, to take part in the annual Monsters of Rock Cruise and we’re elated to be included once again.

This will be our 5th cruise, on what is no doubt. the world’s biggest and best floating music festival.

Myself, Mr. Todd ‘Chase’ Chaisson (bass) will be bringing our trusty friend and lead guitarist Billy Morris and Tod ‘T’ Burr will be on drums once again.

The cruise is already Sold Out, 6 months in advance and it’s sure to be an awesome time, see you all there.

In March of 2024, I will return to one of my favorite places on the planet, Brazil.

For close to 20 years I have been traveling to and playing around Brazil, and if my memory is correct, I believe this will be my 7th time playing this amazing country.

I will be playing several shows in Brazil and sharing the stage with Crazy Lixx from Sweden. We will take it on the road to Sao Paulo, Curritiba and Belo Horizonte.

If you have never been to Brazil, definitely add it to your Bucket-List and don’t forget Thailand as will.

Tuff “Fist First” coming on Vinyl in early 2024

Lastly, I am super stoked to say, Tuff will be celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Tuff “Fist First” and in doing so, we have remastered it, and will be releasing it for the first time ever, on Vinyl in early 2024.

That’s right, more Vinyl from RLS Records and Tuff, and this came out awesome.

The track listing is listed below, and while the cover art stays the same, the back of the LP jacket, and multi-page full color insert has a whole new look!

Tuff “Fist First” Vinyl track listing

Side A
1. Tied To The Bells  4:41
2. In Dogs We Trust  2:24
3. Better Off Dead  4:32

In addition to it being remastered, we added “Another Man’s Gun” from the same Philadelphia recording sessions that we did with Producer Randy Cantor.

There will also be a variation of colors with traditional Black vinyl, a Orange vinyl option, and a transition of Black & Orange (mix).

Tuff “Fist First” will have both traditional Black and an Orange Vinyl option


The pre-order links for Tuff “Fist First” on Vinyl will be available in January 2024.

I am so stoked on this, it sounds great, looks great and I can’t wait for you to add this to your collection.
