Get ready for a thunderous reunion as British Lion returns to the legendary venue that helped shape metal history.

In a thunderous announcement that has sent shockwaves through the metal community, British Lion is set to take over the iconic Cart & Horses for a six-night residency this December, alongside the formidable special guests, Albion. This venue, steeped in the rich history of Iron Maiden, promises to be the perfect backdrop for a series of unforgettable performances.

Steve Harris, the iron-willed mastermind behind Iron Maiden and founder of British Lion, expressed his excitement: “We’re really happy to be coming back to the Cart & Horses for six nights in December. We’ve had some fantastic shows there over the years, and it’s always great to get back to such an important venue for Iron Maiden’s history. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone there!” His words echo the sentiments of many fans who cherish the venue as a shrine of metal.

Joining British Lion on this monumental journey will be Albion, featuring the extraordinary talents of Jack Clark, the current guitarist for Jethro Tull, and Joe Parrish-James, a former member of Jethro Tull who now channels his energy into Albion. With Harris’s well-documented admiration for Jethro Tull, this collaboration is a nostalgic nod that links two generations of guitar prowess, making this residency not just a concert series, but a historic musical event.

Metalheads should mark their calendars for December 13-18, when the Cart & Horses will once again transform into a sanctuary of sound, resonating with the raw power of British Lion's live show. This is more than a mere concert; it’s a celebration of metal's enduring legacy, a chance to witness history in the making.

Tickets for these intimate London shows are bound to vanish faster than a flash of lightning, so make sure to grab yours before they're gone. Remember, this isn’t just a gig; it’s a pilgrimage to the heart of heavy metal.
