KK’s Priest, the metal band featuring former Judas Priest members K.K. Downing and Tim “Ripper” Owens, have announced a 2024 headlining US tour, and they’re bringing L.A. Guns and Burning Witches along as support.
The trek will kick off March 7th in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and run through a March 24th date in Glenside, Pennsylvania. According to a press release, more dates are on the way, as “this tour is scheduled to be the first of at least a two-leg USA tour, planned to continue later in 2024.”
Tickets for select shows go on sale Saturday (December 16th) at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster, while tickets for all other gigs can be purchased via links on the official KK’s Priest website. Fans can also check for deals or pick up tickets to sold-out shows via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.
“It has been far too long,” Downing said in a statement. “I am very excited to announce that KK’s Priest will soon have the honor of playing our first ever shows in the USA starting March 7th 2024. Finally, KK’s Priest metal is coming to my dear home away from home.”
He added, “We will be very proud to bring you the finest British steel from England — where the embryo of this beloved music was conceived so many years ago. The sands of time have moved so quickly for us all, but I am sure we all feel incredibly fortunate to have been a part of this nostalgic journey. I look forward to seeing everyone again — rest assured that it will be ‘Blood and Thunder,’ with ‘Hellfire Thunderbolts’ and much more. We promise to make history again together with you on this very special occasion. See you very soon!”
In September, KK’s Priest released their sophomore album, The Sinner Rides Again, which Downing discussed in an interview with Heavy Consequence.
