Judas Priest begin their Invincible Shield 2024 tour on March 11. Their U.S. concerts, produced by Live Nation, and with special guest Sabaton, begin on April 18 before wrapping up on May 22. Those shows fall between extensive dates throughout Europe—where they are being joined by Saxon and Uriah Heep—that were previously announced. Tickets are available here. The extensive run is named after their upcoming album; listen to several tracks below.
Judas Priest has spent over 50 years crafting a legendary career. Emerging from Birmingham in 1969, their impact and influence has been one of the most significant in the world of heavy metal. The band originally solidified their place in music history with iconic albums like Sad Wings of Destiny and Sin After Sin, known for metal anthems like “Sinner” and “Hell Bent for Leather” while pioneering the leather-and-studs image now synonymous with the metal culture.
The ’80s marked their pinnacle with classic albums British Steel, Screaming For Vengeance, and Defenders of the Faith, generating timeless hits like “Breaking the Law.” Through various challenges, in 2018 the band’s lineup of Rob Halford, Glenn Tipton, Richie Faulkner, Ian Hill and Scott Travis released Firepower which became one of their most successful albums, backed by an extensive global tour.
Invisible Shield, the band’s first studio album in six years, arrives March 8, 2024, via Epic Records.
