Heavy metal icons Girlschool and Alcatrazz have joined forces for a UK & Ireland tour later in 2021.
The two bands will kick off their trek at Blackpool Waterloo on Friday 19th November 2021 and call in at Swansea, Grimsby, Edinburgh, Bradford, Newcastle and London before culminating at Belfast Limelight 2 on Saturday 4th December 2021.
Tickets to Girlschool and Alcatrazz’ UK tour dates are on sale from Planet Rock Tickets now.
Girlschool formed in the new wave of British heavy metal scene in 1970s and frequently associated with contemporaries Motörhead. They are the longest running all-female rock band, still active after more than 40 years.
Originally formed in 1975 from a school band called Painted Lady, Girlschool enjoyed strong media exposure and commercial success in the UK in the early 1980s with three albums of ‘punk-tinged metal’ and a few singles.
They maintain a worldwide cult following and are an inspiration for many female rock musicians.
Alcatrazz is very pleased to welcome well-known vocalist Doogie White to the fold for all live 2021 shows.
With neo-classical “Shred Lord” Joe Stump on guitar, founding members Jimmy Waldo (Keys) and Gary Shea (Bass), plus the addition of Doogie White, Alcatrazz is offering a high energy 100% LIVE metal show covering the Alcatrazz classics plus selections from Doogie’s own work as a member of the Michael Schenker Fest and Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow.
This is a metal supergroup in the true sense of the word.
Alcatrazz’s latest album “Born Innocent” was critically acclaimed and sold extremely well around the world in 2020.
Now with a renewed sense of purpose and finally all members pulling in the musical same direction the band are ready to finally establish themselves as a potent force in the hard rock and heavy metal world.
