L.A. Guns announce US tour dates supporting KK’S Priest
Legendary rockers L.A. Guns are pleased to announce upcoming 2024 tour dates with the iconic KK’S Priest – featuring Judas Priest alum and GRAMMY Award musicians K.K. Downing (guitar) and Tim “Ripper” Owens (vocals). Additional support comes from the Swiss heavy metal unit, Burning Witches.
The first leg of the upcoming US tour kicks off on March 7, 2024 in Fort Lauderdale, FL and is to be the first of at least a two leg US tour for KK’S Priest planned to continue later in 2024.
About the tour, K.K. Downing says: “It has been far too long! I am very excited to announce that KK’S Priest will soon have the honour of playing our first ever shows in the US starting March 7th 2024. Finally, KK’S Priest metal is coming to my dear home away from home.
“We will be very proud to bring you the finest British steel from England — where the embryo of this beloved music was conceived so many years ago. The sands of time have moved so quickly for us all, but I am sure we all feel incredibly fortunate to have been a part of this nostalgic journey. I look forward to seeing everyone again — rest assured that it will be ‘Blood and Thunder,’ with ‘Hellfire Thunderbolts’ and much more. We promise to make history again together with you on this very special occasion.

L.A. Guns are supporting their 2023 release, Black Diamonds. Written and recorded over the course of 2022, Black Diamonds sees Tracii Guns, Phil Lewis, and company continuing on the same successful and inspiring sonic journey that they’ve been taking on their most recent albums, Checkered Past, The Devil You Know, and The Missing Peace.
The band doesn’t shy away from flexing their hard rock influences, but also incorporate more introspective acoustic tracks reflective of their classic rock influences from the ’70s. This makes for a potent and highly listenable cocktail of an album in Black Diamonds.
Line-up:
Phil Lewis – Vocals
Tracii Guns – Electric & Acoustic Guitars, Mellotron
Ace Von Johnson – Electric Guitars
Johnny Martin – Bass, Electric Electric Guitars
Shawn Duncan – Drums (live)
Adam Hamilton – Drums (studio) & Strings
