British Lion, featuring Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris, have announced a run of West Coast US tour dates for October, along with dates in Australia, New Zealand, and Japan.
The hard rock band will play shows on October 3rd at Brick by Brick in San Diego and October 7th at Whisky A Go Go in Los Angeles, leading up to an appearance at the Aftershock Festival on October 10th in Sacramento. Tony Moore’s Awake will support all headlining dates.
General ticket sales start Thursday (July 18th) at 10 a.m. local time via local outlets. Fans can also look for deals or get tickets to sold-out dates via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.
“We’re really excited to be able to play our first ever shows in Australia and New Zealand” remarked Harris in a press release. “We’ve been to the US before, but this is our first time to the West Coast! And to top it off, we’ll also be returning to Japan to complete what I’m sure will be a fantastic tour! We look forward to seeing you all on the road!”
Harris and company released their first album under the British Lion moniker, The Burning, in 2020. The bassist will be a busy man this fall, as the upcoming British Lion shows in California fall on off days during Iron Maiden’s fall North American tour (tickets available here), with both bands performing at Aftershock.
