BLACK STAR RIDERS announce they hit the road next year with an extensive UK tour in support of their new album ‘Heavy Fire’ — set for release early 2017. Dates below.
After a full year off the road — Black Star Riders (Ricky Warwick, Scott Gorham, Damon Johnson, Robert Crane and Jimmy DeGrasso) — will be back with a 16 date UK & Ireland run — joined on the first five dates by Scottish rockers Gun and RAW RAMP favorites THE AMORETTES and then Sweden’s BACKYARD BABIES with Gun on the remaining 11 shows.
Ricky Warwick said, “It seems like ages since we did the Leppard / Whitesnake tour so we are all really looking forward to be back out on the road with BSR. Our third album will be out just prior to the dates so its going to be great to play tracks from that along with favorites from the first two records also. Having my old friends from Backyard Babies, Gun and The Amorettes out with us too is just icing on the cake to make a great tour!”
