most respected rock acts. Founded by Irish vocalist Robby Thomas Walsh, the band has evolved from its Deep Purple roots into a powerhouse of original music, completing four studio albums, with the previous release 'BANNED' (Metalville/Edel) spending 8 weeks in the USA Top 50 Metal/Rock charts.

A ma­jor ca­reer high­light came in 2019, when Purpendicular per­formed at the SWR Hits Parade at a sold out Schleyerhalle Stuttgart along­side Holly Johnson (Frankie goes to Hollywood) and Tony Hadley (Spandau Ballet), reach­ing mil­lions of view­ers across Germany.

No longer just a trib­ute act, the band now stands as a cre­ative force in its own right, fea­tur­ing an all-star lineup of mu­si­cians who have shaped the rock and funk scenes, tour­ing eu­rope ex­ten­sively since 2007.

Over the years, the band has col­lab­o­rated live and in the stu­dio with rock leg­ends in­clud­ing Joe Lynn Turner (Rainbow), Roger Glover (Deep Purple), Tony Carey (Rainbow), Neil Murray (Whitesnake, Black Sabbath), Paul Morris (Rainbow), and Nick Fyffe (Jamiroquai), per­form­ing ma­jor fes­ti­vals and events all over Europe.

At the core of the band is Ian Paice, the iconic Deep Purple drum­mer and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, bring­ing his un­mis­tak­able groove to Purpendicular’s dy­namic sound. The 20th Anniversary Tour fea­tures a pow­er­ful mix of Deep Purple and Whitesnake clas­sics, fan favourites, and ma­te­r­ial from the orig­i­nal Purpendicular back cat­a­log.

This is a band with its own legacy — built on cre­ativ­ity, world-class mu­si­cian­ship, and the en­dur­ing spirit of rock.
