ICARUS WITCH announce tour dates


Pittsburgh's masters of traditional metal ICARUS WITCH are on the road right now alongside original Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di'Anno! Not only are ICARUS WITCH direct support for the full tour, the band are also acting as the backing band for Di'Anno's full set, taking on double-duty every night of the tour.

Check out footage of the full lineup doing Maiden's classic "Running Free" at the Chance in Poughkeepsie, New York last week here.

There has been a venue change for the San Antonio, Texas show, and an Aurora, Colorado date has been added to the routing since previous tour announcements.

ICARUS WITCH's third full-length album Draw Down The Moon is to be released February 9th via Cleopatra Records/Koch Distribution. The nine-track album sees the band in a more mature, yet increasingly aggressive song writing mode, stripped of the extraneous bells and whistles of synths and samples and just straight-up rocking out! The band was recently described as having a "Heavy influence of Iron Maiden combined with good old fashioned hard/rock metal production and great musicianship" by Don Jamieson, host of VH1 Classic's That Metal Show.
