Formed in 1976 under the riff-rolling leadership of
guitarist Brian Tatler, DIAMOND HEAD would quickly establish themselves as a
vanguard of the exploding New Wave Of British Heavy Metal scene. With their
genre-defining debut album Lightning To The Nations, DIAMOND HEAD has
influenced and opened gates for many metal bands.
DIAMOND HEAD will be touring Europe for most of 2019 and are
confirmed on the lineup of two very special UK shows with NWOBHM giants, Saxon,
which will take place on October 19th at the iconic Hammersmith in London and
October 20th at the O2 Apollo in Manchester.
