IRON MAIDEN VOCALISTS MEET FOR FIRST TIME ON HISTORIC DAY FOR METAL

Stjepan Juras, Paul Di’Anno’s manager, just reported on a significant event in Iron Maiden and heavy metal history, “When we thought that nothing could surprise us anymore in the heavy metal world, tonight’s ‘miracle’ in Zagreb proved us all wrong. Paul Di’Anno and Bruce Dickinson met for the first time and had a friendly chat right in Zagreb.

He added, “By coincidence, Dickinson was promoting his new album The Mandrake Project in Zagreb on tour on July 13, and on the same day, after Bruce’s show, Paul Di’Anno had a live promotion and signing session for his first album with the Paul Di’Anno’s Warhorse project.

This was an exceptional opportunity for the two icons of heavy metal music and the legendary singers of the band Iron Maiden to meet for the first time after almost half a century. It made for an exceptional night for the entire Iron Maiden community and for metal fans around the world, because it shows that Iron Maiden and everyone who was in that band, is one big family.”

In the book 666 Days with the Beast, Stjepan described all the key moments of Paul’s recovery and new life, including the meeting with Steve Harris and Bruce Dickinson. A special limited edition of this book can now be ordered.

Paul Di’Anno’s Warhorse recently announced that their self-titled debut album will be released worldwide on July 19 via BraveWords Records. The album has already been attracting widespread acclaim. The Metal Mag called it “One of the best records for the summer”, while Roppongi Rocks said “A good metal album marking the return of one of the genre’s legends. Welcome back, Paul Di’Anno!” and Hard Rock Info said emphatically “ (Paul Di’Anno)… he can without a doubt still deliver”.

 

Paul Andrews, a British singer better known by his stage name Paul Di’Anno, his nearly half-century-long career began explosively with Iron Maiden, when with the EP ‘The Soundhouse Tapes’, and the albums Iron Maiden and Killers forever cemented the foundations of heavy metal. With timeless hits like Iron Maiden, Remember Tomorrow, Running Free, Phantom of the Opera, Killers, Wrathchild, Murders in the Rue Morgue, Purgatory’ etc., they influenced numerous musicians and bands and were responsible for the creation or development of many subgenres in metal music
