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 Di'Anno's backing band, taking on double-duty every night of the tour, which hits NYC tonight.
ICARUS WITCH have completed their third full-length album entitled Draw Down The Moon which is to be released February 9th through Cleopatra Records/Koch Distribution. The nine-track release 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.
