Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson has commented on the possibility of releasing a new solo album in the future. His most recent work is The Mandrake Project , released in March 2024.
In a conversation with Charlie Kendall of Charlie Kendall's Metalshop , Bruce said he will enter the studio in January 2026 to record his eighth solo album. Production will be handled by Brendan Duffey , who remixed " More Balls To Picasso" .
“We’re going into the studio in January of next year to record the album with Brendan Duffey, who also remixed Balls To Picasso and did an incredible job,” he commented [transcription via Blabbermouth ].
According to Bruce Dickinson , the new album is not expected to be released until 2027. Regarding the lineup that will accompany him on the recording, the British musician confirmed that it will be the members of his backing band, the House Band of Hell .
The musicians accompanying him are Tanya O'Callaghan (bass), Dave Moreno (drums), Chris Declercq (guitar) Philip Naslund (guitar), and Mistheria (keyboards).
“We are planning to release it on the 27th. Furthermore, the incredible band that will record the new album with me will be the same one that accompanied me in Europe. Therefore, it's the same band that will tour with me in two years, when we release the new album. Or at least that's the idea,” he concludes.
