According to his manager at Full Metal Service, Stjepan Juras, former Iron Maiden singer Paul Di'anno - who in 2022 underwent medical treatments in Croatia that prevented the loss of his leg - will soon be back on his feet.

Stjepan issued the following update earlier today:

"The flight for Paul's final treatments in Croatia has finally been booked and this weekend Paul is flying to the fantastic Villa Brezovica facility, where a whole series of therapists and doctors will take care of his health and recovery.

Last time in Croatia, Paul got everything he needed. All the doctors and physiotherapists involved did a great job. A very complicated operation was performed perfectly, and Paul also got new teeth. Now comes the last and at the same time the most difficult part, because Paul now has everything he needs to walk, but what he needs most is the mental strength to overcome the wheelchair and to overcome the fear of verticalization. I am asking everyone who can help him in this.

Paul will be on final treatments for a month, when he returns to the English and European tour, and then he will continue his recovery and treatments again before leaving for Australia. After the Australian and South American dates, Paul should come on the final rounds of treatments and if he tries, according to the predictions of all the doctors, he will be completely independent and will walk.

Thanks to everyone who has helped so far. All future treatments will be exclusively financed by Paul with income from concerts and merchandise, therefore, by coming to concerts and buying merchandise, you will help him the most."

The beast roared back and BraveWords Records is honoured to have him and his new band as the inaugural signing to the label. There are so many great things brewing behind the scenes, so stay tuned!”

Paul Andrews, a British singer better known by his stage name Paul Di’Anno, his nearly half-century-long career began explosively with Iron Maiden, when with the EP The Soundhouse Tapes, and the albums Iron Maiden and Killers forever cemented the foundations of heavy metal. With timeless hits like "Iron Maiden", "Remember Tomorrow", "Running Free", "Phantom Of The Opera", "Killers", "Wratchild", "Murders In The Rue Morgue", "Purgatory", etc., they influenced numerous musicians and bands and were responsible for the creation or development of many subgenres in metal music.

Paul is known as one of the most productive singers, who has a huge number of albums and other releases behind him, either as a solo artist or a member of bands such as Gogmagog, Di’Anno’s Battlezone, Praying Mantis, Killers, Rockfellas or Warhorse. In all his incarnations, Paul always knew how to find a way to the fans, with numerous hits, uncompromising singing, which is confirmed by his successful career and furious live shows around the world.

For the last eight years, Paul faced serious health problems that almost ended his career, but thanks to his loyal fans and his strong will to overcome the disease, Paul is on a big world tour again, and he recorded a new album with his new band Warhorse. This icon of heavy metal with the heart of a punk rock rebel never spared himself in his life, but he always gave everything for music and fans, which is why they have followed him faithfully for almost fifty years.

BraveWords Records have agreed to physical distribution deals with Plastic Head in Europe and MVD in North America.
