When heavy metal titans Accept returned to the stage in 2009, nobody knew that Wolf Hoffmann and his fellows were just starting out on the most successful chapter of their band’s history.

After nearly seven years, countless live sensations and three successful albums, with Blind Rage even achieving #1 in the official German charts, it is time: Accept have bundled the energy, the rage and the thunderstorm of their 40-year career into a new live DVD. This will be launched on Friday January 13 on Blu-ray and DVD, each shipped with two CDs.

Accept’s headline show at Bang Your Head!!! Festival 2015 has been immortalised for eternity. The video director of the festival wanted the band to be able to watch their performance again, and when watching the video material, the band realised that this was the show that perfectly demonstrated the piercing force of the new line-up.

Wolf Hoffmann and Uwe Lulis doing their perfectly synchronised headbanging is just one example showing that the chemistry between the members matched up perfectly from the very beginning. Together with the release of the DVD there’s also the exciting announcement of a new studio album.

Accept will be touring the UK & Ireland this week alongside Sabaton & Twilight Force:

Jan 10th – Dublin, Vicar St

Jan 11th – Glasgow, O2 Academy

Jan 13th – Manchester, Apollo

Jan 14th – London, Brixton Academy

Released just before Christmas through Warner Bros. Records, One showcases the stunning vocals and songwriting capabilities of this young artist through four acoustic tracks including the three original songs 'Hell Would Have To Freeze Over', 'Cinderella' and 'She'll Never Love You', as well as a beautiful version of Jessie Ware's 2014 hit single 'Say You Love Me'.

Born in County Down, now living in London, McGrath grew up surround by Irish folk music but found her love in the new era of country music. Drawing influences from the likes Rascal Flatts, Kacey Musgraves, Dan + Shay and Maddie & Tae as much as pop stars Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran, McGrath delivers a contemporary country-pop sound that attracts a youthful audience.

In February McGrath will be supporting The Saturdays’ Una Healy for two special shows playing at London’s St Pancras Old Church on the 15th before returning to Ireland to play The Sugar Club Dublin on the 16th.
