Blackwelder

History

International power / progressive metal band Blackwelder, which started back in 2012, signed a worldwide management deal with Germany's Rock'n'Growl Management. Hailing from the four corners of the world, Blackwelder is a brand new metal experience featuring some of the top names in power prog metal today. Arguably the best singer in all of metal, Ralf Scheepers (Primal Fear, ex-Gamma Ray) fronts this extraordinary outfit at the top of his game, alongside guitar virtuoso Andrew Szucs (Seven Seraphim). Björn Englen (Dio Disciples, ex-Yngwie Malmsteen) and Aquiles Priester (Hangar, ex-Angra) round out this unstoppable team of what quite possibly could be one of the greatest line-ups metal has ever seen.

The band's debut album 'Survival of the Fittest' is due to be released on April 24, 2015 via German label GoldenCore Records/ZYX Music.
