Crimson Glory, the Florida heavy metal legends who dropped the sensational news in December 2023 that they were returning to the scene with a revamped lineup, still featuring original members Ben Jackson on guitar, Jeff Lords on bass and Dana Burnell on drums, now joined by newly recruited vocalist Travis Wills of Infidel Rising and guitarist Mark “Borgy” Borgmeyer of The Lost Boys, put out their comeback album “Chasing The Hydra” (BraveWords Records / No Remorse Records) in the middle of April this year!
The band recently confirmed a handful of new tour dates for next year, including a show at the Boogaloo club in Zagreb, set for May 18, 2027. Between May 12 and May 18, the band will be roaming the Balkan peninsula with a run of shows! A few dates are still being booked, and Crimson Glory will roll into Zagreb straight from Belgrade, where they play the day before at the club Zappa Barka.
Crimson Glory, an American heavy metal institution, were formed in 1983 in Sarasota, Florida, USA. The classic lineup featured vocalist Midnight, guitarists Jon Drenning and Ben Jackson, bassist Jeff Lords and drummer Dana Burnell. With that lineup they achieved international fame in the mid-80s and were counted among the pioneers of the American progressive metal movement, alongside bands like Queensrÿche, Dream Theater, Fates Warning and Watchtower. Three out of five members of the classic lineup remain unchanged today. With the esteemed new vocalist Travis Wills, the band has played a ton of shows over the past year, and this year they’ve already made their way back to European stages.
