U.D.O. and Striker — 23 January 2027, Sala Apolo (Barcelona)

Metal

The triple-anniversary tour opens in Barcelona, fifteen days after «Voodoo Ranger», the twentieth album

U.D.O. play Sala Apolo on Saturday 23 January 2027, with Canada’s Striker opening. Advance tickets cost 35 € plus fees, 40 € on the door. It’s run by Madness Live, who list doors at seven in the evening and note that the final schedule won’t be published until a week before.

It’s the Catalan date of the “Triple Anniversary Tour 2027”. They’re coming to present “Voodoo Ranger”, out on 8 January through Reigning Phoenix Music: the show falls exactly fifteen days after its release.

The line-up touring the album is Dirkschneider on vocals, his son Sven on drums, Peter Baltes on bass — who had been his bassist in Accept — and Fabian “Dee” Dammers and Alen Brentini on guitars. The label presents Brentini as the new guitarist, and the album is the first to carry his stamp, in the form of songwriting contributions.

There are four Spanish dates, from 23 to 27 January, with Barcelona opening the run: then come Madrid on the 24th at Revi Live, Villava on the 25th at Totem, and Seville on the 27th at Custom.
