2018 was an exciting year for DORO, having released her very successful debut double album ‘Forever Warriors, Forever United’ on top of completing the first leg of her world tour, which included some killer performances in the UK – at Bloodstock Festival straight after Judas Priest plus some hugely popular shows with Saxon.
DORO has now announced that she will be releasing a 4-track vinyl EP titled ‘Backstage To Heaven’ on March 8th – the same day that the second leg of her world tour kicks off! The EP will feature two album tracks, as well as two new unreleased live tracks.
“I wish you all a happy new year, it will surely be a rocking 2019”, says Doro Pesch, continuing: “I’m really looking forward to the upcoming European tour in March and therefore we had come up with something very special: we will have a new single coming out as a beautiful, coloured 10 inch vinyl. The title track ‘Backstage To Heaven’ is another fan favorite from our double album ‘Forever Warriors, Forever United’ and we had the famous German comedian and musician Helge Schneider in the studio as an exceptional guest, playing a saxophone solo. The following track ‘Heartbroken’ has another high profile guest, Doug Aldrich (Whitesnake, Dio, The Dead Daisies etc.) who contributed an impressive guitar solo, and the B-side also offers something exclusive: two brand new live recordings from the first part of the ‘Forever Warriors, Forever United’ tour, featuring a crunchy version of ‘Blood, Sweat And Rock’n’Roll’ and an exclusive recording of ‘If I Can’t Have You No One Will’, along with my duet partner Johan Hegg from Amon Amarth.”
