Blaze Bayley bringing War Within Me Tour to Esquires on Saturday

Acclaimed hard rock singer songwriter Blaze Bayley is bringing his War Within Me tour to Esquires this weekend.

Bayley began his professional music career in Wolfsbane in 1984 but was elevated to global heights when he joined Iron Maiden.

He released two albums with the band – 1995’s The X-Factor and 1998’s Virtual XI – and toured the world between 1994 and 1999.

After leaving Maiden, Bayley embarked on a solo career, during which he has released 11 full-length studio albums as well as live albums, live DVDs and compilations.

He released his 11th studio album, War Within Me last year.

Blaze has earned an enviable reputation as one of the hardest working artists touring around.

In 2015, he celebrated the 15th anniversary of his first solo release Silicon Messiah, resulting in a significant resurgence of interest in his career which was followed by the Infinite Entanglement trilogy during 2016 to 2018.

In recent years, Blaze has toured widely in the UK, Europe, North America and Latin America as well as joining Disturbed on stage at the 2016 Download Festival for a rendition of The Who’s Baba O’Riley’ and performing with Poland’s Sabaton.

Support is by Absolva. Both bands play the Bedford venue on Saturday, September 24.

Tickets cost £18 in advance before fees via www.bedfordesquires.com
