Def Leppard 2022

Def Leppard singer Joe Elliott sings backing vocals on new Black Star Riders single Better Than Saturday Night and has spoken about the song.

'Diamond Star Halos' is the band's 12th studio album.

The album was announced on 17th March and then released on Friday 27th May 2022.

Joe Elliott sings backing vocals on the new single by Black Star Riders and he says he was honoured to be included.

The song 'Better Than Saturday Night' was released on 6th June and is the first single from their new album.

'Wrong Side Of Paradise' is scheduled to be released on 20th Janaury 2023.

The song was written by Joe's long time friend and lead singer Ricky Warwick who toured with Def Leppard on the 2002/2003 X/Ten world tour and many times since.

Black Star Riders supported Def Leppard in Europe in 2015 and again on the December 2015 UK/Ireland tour alongside Whitesnake.

Joe had been due to produce their second album 'The Killer Instinct' in 2014 but had to pull out due to Def Leppard's busy schedule.
