John Bush Announces First European Tour Celebrating Anthrax Era

John Bush is heading across the pond. The veteran vocalist has announced his first-ever headline tour in Europe, specifically celebrating the era he spent fronting Anthrax. Scheduled for the summer of 2027, the tour will see Bush hitting dates in six countries, including the UK, Germany, France, Switzerland, Hungary, and Austria.

The setlist will span the four studio albums Bush recorded with Anthrax: "Sound Of White Noise", "Stomp 442", "Volume 8: The Threat Is Real", and "We've Come For You All". Bush confirmed that the show will include well-known anthems alongside deeper cuts that have rarely been heard live in recent years. "Europa! I've come for you all!!! It is finally time..." Bush posted, expressing his excitement to perform at both festivals and headlining spots.

It is finally time to bring the John Bush sings the songs of ANTHRAX 1993-2003 show to the heavy metal continent.

This follows a series of successful shows in the US and a 2026 appearance at Milwaukee Metalfest where Bush performed the material with his backing band, Category 7. The lineup for these shows included Phil Demmel, Mike Orlando, Jason Bittner, and Joey Vera.

Bush's tenure with Anthrax from 1992 to 2005 remains a defining period for the band, following the reigns of original vocalist Joey Belladonna. While Anthrax has cycled through several vocalists over four decades, including Neil Turbin and Dan Nelson, Bush's contributions remain a cornerstone of the band's discography. The 2027 "European Stomp Tour 27" will see him finally bring those definitive tracks to a continental audience.
