KK’s Priest and German-American metal legends Accept have announced a co-headlining North American tour.
Both bands are touring in support of their brand-new albums, out now via Napalm Records.
The trek will kick off on August 31 in Los Angeles, California, and conclude on October 7 in San Francisco, California. Tickets go on sale Thursday, May 9 at 10:00 a.m. EDT.
KK’s Priest consists of former Judas Priest members K.K. Downing (guitar) and Tim “Ripper” Owens (vocals), alongside guitarist A.J. Mills (Hostile), bassist Tony Newton (Voodoo Six) and drummer Sean Elg (Deathriders, Cage).
Downing says, “It’s time!!! Let the full European metal assault commence, KK’S PRIEST / ACCEPT. Not since 1983 have we shared the same battleground. From Germany, from the U.K., let the Flying Vs clash, let the metal fly! All in the name of defending our beloved heavy metal music, let the people come from all walks of life to witness the battle royal.”
“There is no doubt that we warriors of metal will give every ounce of our energy and our power in order to deliver up our very finest performance. This is a spectacle not to be missed, and this is possibly the one and only time in history for you to witness this iconic duel. Who will be the victor? You will be the judge, let the music begin from early August to early October,” he continued. “The arena awaits!!”
Accept’s Wolf Hoffmann added, “This tour with KK’S PRIEST is a dream come true for Accept and for me personally.”
