BRITISH LION, the side project of IRON MAIDEN bassist and founder Steve Harris, has released a brand new music video, “Land Of The Perfect People”. Taken from BRITISH LION‘s 2020 album “The Burning”, the song’s lyrics were written by vocalist Richard Taylor, who comments: “It’s about abandonment and issues from being brought up in a children’s home.”
Although a summer European tour in support of “The Burning” couldn’t go ahead last year as planned, BRITISH LION has now been confirmed for the 2022 U.K. Download festival and is very much hoping to also reschedule some other European club and festival dates. BRITISH LION completed its first U.S. tour in January and February 2020, and you can check out our photo gallery of their show at Fort Lauderdale last year by visiting this location.
BRITISH LION comprises Taylor, guitarists David Hawkins and Grahame Leslie, Harris on bass and keyboards and drummer Simon Dawson. “The Burning” was released on January 17, 2020 in digipack CD, double gatefold vinyl and digital download formats via Explorer1 Music (E1). The album was recorded, engineered and mixed at Barnyard Studios by Tony Newton and produced by Steve Harris.
