As reported by MiddleAsianNews, in July the Mongolian band The Hu will open for Iron Maiden before returning to the UK.
The band The Hu, known for their unique folk metal, is preparing for their largest tour in the UK and Europe.
The tour will kick off on September 29 in Glasgow and will conclude on October 11 in Norwich. After that, the band will continue performing in Europe, wrapping up in Luxembourg on October 31, Halloween day.
In their statement, The Hu emphasized that the new setlist will be filled with "hope and energy."
"As always, in our style, we have prepared a completely new show with a vibrant atmosphere," the musicians noted. "Come to our long-awaited performances, let’s enjoy the music together!"
All concerts will feature the French folk band Skald as the opening act.
This tour is part of the band's busy schedule this year. In May, The Hu will head to the USA, where they will headline a concert with Apocalyptica and also open for Iron Maiden at their 50th-anniversary concert in Knebworth in July.
While there is no news about a continuation of the album Rumble Of Thunder, released in 2022, the band previously released the single The Real You, styled like Iron Maiden, which may indicate possible changes in the next album.
