HELLYEAHare in a league of their own with their own. Their distinct sound and live stage presence is probably best described as pure metallic fury and the envy of fans and other musicians all over the world. This is a musician’s band and they are finally getting the recognition they deserve.
After roughly eight years, three albums, countless tours as headliners, festival favorites and as Special Guests to A7X,Volbeat, Five Finger Death Punch,HELLYEAH have gone for the jugular with their new album “Blood for Blood” – every song on the album clamps down and doesn’t let go. The band’s live shows have been more intense than ever with the addition of Saunders and Brady last year. This tour cycle is seeing the band and the crowd going nuts and moshing all over every night. HELLYEAH Live in 2015 delivers the best of both worlds. Fans are clamouring for this tour all over the world!
HELLYEAH fans are huge in number and these shows are going to be packed. Expect back breaking mosh pits, throat destroying scream-alongs and a sense of weight being lifted from your shoulders. This band is full-on dedicated to ensuring their shows are as much about the fans as about the band so these shows will be something special!
