Legendary rock and rollers Motorhead are announced today as the latest superstar headliners for the Eden Sessions 2015.
Motorhead will play on Saturday June 27 - and join Elton John (June 16 and 17 – sold out) and Ben Howard (July 17) on the bill for the 2015 Eden Sessions. More acts will be announced soon.
In what will be one of the most incredible nights in Eden Sessions history, Motörhead, led by irrepressible founder-member Lemmy, will be joined by special guests, fellow rock gods the Stranglers.
Coming out of the 1970s, Motorhead bridged the gap between rock and punk and their fellow rock legends the Stranglers rode the New Wave. Both of these amazing bands keep on winning whole armies of new young fans.
Since forming in 1975, Motorhead's ear-splitting fusion of rock, metal and punk has appealed to fans across the board, young and old. The band's fast, heavy riffs earned them the reputation as the "world's loudest rock band" and helped pave the way for the thrash and speed metal sub-genres.
Grammy-winners Motorhead have sold more than 20 million records worldwide. They are perhaps best known for their single Ace of Spades, an all-time rock classic, while the fanged face that appears on their album artwork has become one of rock's most recognisable icons. This Eden Session will be their first gig in Cornwall since 1983.
Lemmy lines up alongside Phil Campbell ( in Motörhead since 1984) and Mikkey Dee ( since 1992).
Special guests the Stranglers, one of the longest surviving acts of the punk era, have created a unique sound that also spans prog rock, pop, metal and jazz.
