U.D.O. Add More European Dates To Touchdown World Tour

Only its title, Touchdown, promised that U.D.O.'s latest album would become a big success - and the band delivered, well supported by fans worldwide. The album hit the shelves on August 25 through Atomic Fire Records and got vaulted on many album charts around the world including some of their highest chart entries of the group's long-spanning career.

To also keep the (foot)ball moving on the live front, U.D.O. are pleased to announce that their upcoming spring 2024 European touring leg, which features 13 select dates alongside German metal commandos and label mates Primal Fear among others, has been extended by 24 shows in 13 countries.
