Legendary metal vocalist Wade Black, known for his powerful performances with Crimson Glory, Leatherwolf, Seven Witches, and Wade Black's Astronomica, proudly announces the launch of his latest band: Wade Black’s 35 Years of Metal. This monumental celebration marks more than three decades of delivering raw, authentic heavy metal to fans across the globe — and kicks off with an explosive European tour this summer.
Backed by an elite lineup of world-class musicians, Wade Black’s 35 Years of Metal promises to bring fans a high-energy set featuring songs spanning Wade’s storied career — from classic anthems to rare deep cuts, and new material that embodies the spirit of metal’s past, present, and future.
“This tour is more than just a milestone — it’s a tribute to the fans and the music that made everything possible,” says Wade Black. “We’re bringing the fire every night. Expect a show you’ll never forget.”
The '35 Years of Metal' tour will kick off in July, 2026, with stops across the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany with more dates coming. Each show will be a celebration of Wade Black’s legacy — a chance for fans old and new to witness one of metal’s most enduring voices delivering his most powerful performance yet.
