Heavy metal legend and Iron Maiden vocalist BRUCE DICKINSON has released last March his first solo album since 2005: ‘The Mandrake Project’, which was written with long-time musical collaborator and producer Roy Z.

“This album has been a very personal journey for me and I am extremely proud of it,” said DICKINSON. “Roy Z and I have been planning, writing and recording it for years, and I am very excited for people to finally hear it. I’m even more excited at the prospect of getting out on the road with this amazing band that we have put together, to be able to bring it to life. »

‘The Mandrake Project’ is DICKINSON’s 7th solo album and his first since ‘Tyranny Of Souls’ in 2005 and was released worldwide in various formats on the 1st of March via BMG. BRUCE DICKINSON and his long-time songwriting partner and producer Roy Z have created one of the seminal rock albums of 2024 with ten imaginative, expansive and captivating tracks. Heavy in sound and rich in musical textures, BRUCE DICKINSON brings to life a musical vision he’s been working on for a long time and offers some of the best vocal performances of his career.

Most of the recording took place at the Doom Room in Los Angeles, with Roy Z acting as both guitarist and bassist. The line-up for ‘The Mandrake Project’ was completed by keyboard maestro Mistheria and drummer Dave Moreno, both of whom also appeared on BRUCE’s last solo studio album ‘Tyranny Of Souls’ from 2005.

BRUCE DICKINSON and his phenomenal band will bring the music of ‘The Mandrake Project’ to life with a major headline tour this spring and summer, passing by the Rockhal on June 30th. The live band now consists of two guitarists – Philip Naslund and Chris Declercq – as well as drummer Dave Moreno, bassist Tanya O’Callaghan and keyboard maestro Mistheria.
