Chasing Dragons tickets and 2024 tour dates

Biography

Hitting the music scene from Leeds, UK five-piece Chasing Dragons are building their ranks of fans with their fresh, energetic performances proving their ability to capture the audience. Described often as a female-fronted mix of the likes of Avenged Sevenfold, AFI & Aiden, with an energy and presence akin to that of Paramore. With their chunky riffs, harmonious guitar licks and a bit of Brody Dalle thrown in for good measure, the band are steadily building their army.

Since forming fully in January ’11 the band have been playing at as many different venues as they can dip their fingers into including The Cockpit, Gasworks, Bradford Rios, Empire, Corporation, Blackflag, Jabez Clegg and many more. They have been fortunate enough to take to the stage with bands including Attack!Attack! and The Headstart and have been rocking out with bands of all genres from pop punk to rock and roll, heavy metal and beyond. Chasing Dragons have shown their ability to adapt their performance to whatever comes their way.

2011 saw them play at festivals such as Metal Fringe 2011, part of Leeds Fringe Festival. This revolutionary new festival has given them a huge local media boost with some very complementary radio interviews, plays and reviews. The band also rocked out the main stage at Sheffield LGBT Pride in July ’11 to a huge audience of 5000, seeing them sell out their entire merch stock with fans demanding future tours. The year also saw them jumping head first into the studio with producer Graeme Atkinson. The band said goodbye to ex-bassist and founding member Joe Hayton in November '11 and have since welcomed Ant into the family.
