British Lion, featuring Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris, launched a new UK tour on July 29th in Harlow. Touring in continued support of the debut British Lion album, the 22-date trek will wrap up on August 26th in London.

Says Harris: "As Maiden fans know, the band is unable to tour this year so I thought I'd do some British Lion live dates and make it a full UK tour this time round so we could get to places we didn't get a chance to play during the previous tours. We have a lot of fun doing the British Lion shows and we're playing clubs again, to keep that same vibe and intimacy which the fans seem to love as much as we do. We have some new songs in the set-list, so are really looking forward to getting out there and seeing everyone!"

During the Harlow show, the band performed two brand new songs during their set. Check out "Bible Black" and "Spitfire" below:
