Formed in 2013, The Dead Daisies have built a reputation as one of the hardest working and most explosive live rock bands in the world. Blending the soul and swagger of classic ‘70s rock with modern firepower, the band’s sound draws comparisons to Aerosmith, Bad Company and Foreigner— packed with bluesy riffs, massive choruses and powerhouse performances.   Built around a rotating collective of world-class musicians, The Dead Daisies have featured rock heavyweights including Doug Aldrich, Glenn Hughes, Tommy Clufetos, David Lowy, Jon Stevens, Richard Fortus, Dizzy Reed, Darryl Jones, John Corabi, Michael Devin, Marco Mendoza, and Deen Castronovo, among others.   The band burst onto the international scene in 2013 touring with ZZ Top, Aerosmith, KISS, Def Leppard, Whitesnake and Lynyrd Skynyrd before quickly establishing themselves as a global touring force. Over the years they have performed at some of the world’s biggest festivals including Download, Graspop, Sweden Rock, Hellfest and Rock Fest Barcelona, while also headlining sold-out tours across Europe, North and South America, Japan and Australia. Among their standout live moments was 2017’s “Concert For Freedom” at Woodstock Festival Poland, where The Dead Daisies performed with the 60-piece Gorzów Philharmonic Orchestra in front of an estimated 400,000+people, a landmark celebration of rock, peace and freedom.   Their acclaimed catalogue includes Revolución, Make Some Noise, Burn It Down, Holy Ground, Radiance and Light ’Em Up, with songs such as “Rise Up,” “Long Way To Go,” “Bustle And Flow” and“ Dead And Gone” becoming fan favourites and rock radio staples worldwide. The band has consistently topped rock charts, amassed millions of streams and earned a reputation for high-octane live shows that capture the raw spirit of classic rock.   The Dead Daisies have also become known for unique projects beyond the stage — from their historic cultural trip to Cuba in 2015 to collaborations with Harley-Davidson, the USO and major global rock brands.   In 2024, the band released their hard-hitting rock album Light ’Em Up, recorded in Nashville and Muscle Shoals with producer Marti Frederiksen. This was followed in 2025 by the blues-inspired album Lookin’ For Trouble. In 2026, despite taking a break from touring, the band released Live Plus Five— capturing the energy of their acclaimed Stonedead Festival performance alongside additional live recordings from Europe the USA, and UK.   In October 2026, The Dead Daisies began a new era with former Foreigner frontman Kelly Hansen joining on vocals and Jimi Crutchley of The Quireboys on bass. Hansen and Crutchley join David Lowy, Doug Aldrich and Tommy Clufetos.   The band's next chapter began with the release of their single “Lift Me Up” on October 5,and a new album being released late February 2027.A major touring cycle begins in March with headline shows across Europe, UK, the USA, and Scandinavia.   More than a decade in, The Dead Daisies continue to carry the torch for unapologetic, arena-sized rock — delivering the kind of music that’s loud, soulful and built to be played live.
