Jinjer, which formed in Donetsk in Ukraine in 2008, has overcome steep odds and not only managed to secure a record deal but has also toured the world several times over and established itself as a progressive metal force to be reckoned with.

Reportedly with the support of the Ukrainian Ministry of Culture, they were granted a special exemption to exit Ukraine to embark on a world tour this fall.

The band performs at House of Blues on Nov. 13.

Citi cardmembers already have access to presale tickets. Tickets to the Jinjer concert at House of Blues go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. on Friday.
