VH1 Classic To Debut New Series Rock Icons Featuring JUDAS PRIEST, RUSH, MEGADETH, SLASH More

Banger Films has announced their newest television series, premiering next month on Vh1 Classic with Rock Icons.

Over the past year, Sam Dunn has been traveling to meet with some of the biggest names in rock and metal music. Some of them will be very familiar, like the metal heroes he’s had the privilege to interview before, people like Rob Halford of Judas Priest, Joe Elliott of Def Leppard, Geddy Lee of Rush and Slash. He also had the chance to sit down for the first time with such iconic artists as Ann Wilson of Heart and Daryl Hall. He traveled to Dave Mustaine’s winery, Nikki Sixx’s radio studio, Billy Corgan's home and even got invited back to the Texas sanctum of Ted Nugent.

Bringing together elements of celebrated shows such as Classic Albums, Biography, Iconoclasts, and Banger’s own hit show Metal Evolution, Rock Icons is a landmark series celebrating the innovative artists who defined the history of rock music.

Rock Icons premieres Saturday, February 21 at 10pm EST on Vh1 Classic. The first episode features the remarkable Geddy Lee.
