Trapper
Def Leppard will play a 13 date tour of Canada in April/May and Joe's friend Emm Gryner has been added as a support act.
Emm's side band Trapper have been added as support in Montreal, QC (2nd May), Ottawa, ON (4th May) and London, ON (5th May). They feature Emm on vocals/bass and Sean Kelly on guitar.
Def Leppard will start the 2015 Canadian tour on 15th April in Penticton, BC and wrap up on 5th May in London, ON.
Vivian talked about the support act for Canada in February and suggested they would be a home grown band.
No support acts have yet been announced for the first 10 Canadian shows in April.
Trapper released their first single 'Grand Bender' in December 2014 which can be heard below.
Joe Elliott said in December 2014 that he still hopes to release his collaboration album with Emm this year.
Emm recently announced a solo ballads album via Pledge Music.

Canadian Tour opening act?
"I really have no idea. Probably a Canadian act. Rush, perhaps? On seconds thoughts, probably not Rush..."
