Since 1979 Saxon have shown their ability to take rock ‘n’ roll and give it an electrifying edge which has since cemented their status as pioneers of the British heavy metal wave.
With over twenty studio albums under their belt, Saxon has made their steadfast dedication to creating a dynamic body of a work a staple of their career. With no signs of letting up, the Saxon Juggernaut continues with the release earlier this year of their latest album “Thunderbolt” and an ongoing World Tour that’s going from strength to strength.

Guest acts on the dates are German Metal Queen Doro together with UK favorites Wayward Sons.

Biff Byford says: “2018 is turning out to be another monumental year for Saxon. After storming across the North America with the Thunderbolt tour, we are releasing "The Secret of Flight" from the album as the new single & video. The track has already proven to be a live monster song so as we are half way through the year’s tour schedule, it’s apt that we release it now. With that in mind, we would also like to share the following up to date stats with you all:
• Miles travelled: 37,000 miles
• People played to: 200,000
• Bottles of Wine: 184
• Bottles of Beer: 2228
• Bottles of water: 4350
• Cocktails: 560
• Tea bags: 14
• Pizzas: 19
• Curries: 12
• Burgers: 150
• Steaks: 86
• Breakfasts: 49
• Guitar strings: 300
• Drum sticks: 150
• Bass strings: 140
• Guitar picks: 1000
• Hours asleep: Minimal!
As you know we never rest, so the Thunderbolt Tour continues in Europe this summer and through the Autumn - now with the addition of more UK shows!”...
About the new video for “The Secret of Flight” Biff adds: “Being in a touring band we fly a lot so I was sat on a plane one day thinking in the big scheme of things we didn’t discover how to fly until quite recently in man’s history - 1903 that’s only 115 years ago. I thought it would make a good subject so there you go... the secret of flight!”...
