FURY // Support: BLACKSAPPHIRE

In the organizer's words:

FURY
Fury are a heavy metal band from the West Midlands, UK. Their love of the old school metal of Iron Maiden and Metallica are clear, but the rich and soulful voice of Julian Jenkins sets the band apart from the rest. Songs with clear purpose and strong visuals will transport you to another time, another reality, or another universe... Fury are known to create passionate and dynamic live shows, able to capture the spirit of music fans all over.
With three previous albums 'The Lightning Dream' (2014), 'Lost In Space' (2016) and 'The Grand Prize' (2020), the band return to the live arena with a thrilling and raucous new album 'Born To Sin' (released March 2022). The new chapter is stronger than ever with the line up featuring bassist Becky Baldwin (Mercyful Fate live 2022 & Hands off Gretel) the thunderous Tom Fenn (Torous, Brassick) on drums and the powerhouse Nyah Ifill on backing vocals. With the re-opening of venues, Fury have taken their two new albums and a lot of pent up energy on the road for a very exciting 'Back From Hell' tour!

BLACKSAPPHIRE
BlackSapphire is a metal band freshly formed in 2022 from Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia. All 5 musicians have gained years of experience in other bands before joining the current constellation, but have now finally found their musical home and family with BlackSapphire. Their musical finesse convinces with a mixture of metallic heaviness, sound brilliance of the guitars, melodious softness in the melodies, incredibly catchy choruses and the multi-layered depth of the song compositions. Gabriel Medina's vocals consciously play with his impressive spectrum and richness of facets, from catchy-soft to aggressive-rough passages, and repeatedly set highlights with impressive shouts and screams. Genre-typical sounds different... With their debut single BURN TOGEHTER NOW, BlackSapphire make an impressively epochal debut right at the start of their career, arousing emotions and blowing a breath of fresh air through the metal scene. The songs, which were mainly penned by Julian Daniels (lead guitar), unfold their full potential on stage - the band around the charismatic and full-blooded singer Gabriel Medina creates an atmosphere that makes everything possible, from mosh pits to unison singing by the entire band. Anyone who sees BlackSapphire live will get an overdose of endorphins as a direct injection!
