The epic video gives a taste of what is to be expected when the Witches take the stage. Together with the new visual comes the announcement that BURNING WITCHES are set to support KK’s PRIEST on their upcoming UK tour!    

BURNING WITCHES will open for K.K.’s Priest, the new band of legendary Judas Priest guitarist K.K. Downing and singer Tim “Ripper” Owens, together with ex-Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di’Anno’s solo project.     

Romana Kalkuhl (Guitars) states:    
“I am overjoyed to share the stage with this legends! Also the fact, that Tim “Ripper” Owens is one of my absolute favorite singers makes this UK tour even more exciting for me. Since I was a little kid, I was listening to both bands, Maiden & Priest. It is Heavy Metal education somehow, so we are super thrilled to be a part of the legacy of these outstanding musicians! We will storm the stages in the UK with great joy and a big dose of euphoria – see you soon metalheads!”

BURNING WITCHES‘ first live performance with Guldemond took place in June 2019 at the Sweden Rock Festival in Sölvesborg, Sweden.

The vocalist of the Dutch symphonic metal band SHADOWRISEGuldemond was recruited by BURNING WITCHES following the departure of Seraina Telli.

In a 2021 interview with Femme Metal WebzineGuldemond stated about how she joined BURNING WITCHES: “Since the previous guitarist of BURNING WITCHES was already an acquaintance of mine, when they were looking for a new singer, she proposed it to me because I know that I would fit the band. You know, I have the voice, I love the old-school metal and I was already having the same style. In the end, it felt like a natural match. Then I sent a couple of recordings and submitted them for my audition.”
