SHIRAZ LANE (FIN) + XIII DOORS (IRL)

- SHIRAZ LANE: Started in 2011 in Vantaa, Finland, as an ambition to form a new generation rock band, the band started to blossom and reach its anticipated potential when the current desirable line-up was solidified in 2014. Their debut album “For Crying Out Loud” was released worldwide in April 2016, and was a success story from the beginning, achieving 6/7 stars in Metal Hammer. 

The 2nd full length album, ’Carnival Days’’ was released in February 2018. Shiraz Lane continued onto play countless shows in Europe and Finland throughout 2018. In November of 2018, the band joined forces H.E.A.T for a month-long European adventure. 

In 2022 the band had the absolute honor to warm up the stage for KISS on their Farewell Tour at Helsinki Ice Hall, Finland in June, followed by more shows all over the world. 

The band then felt the time was ripe to start preparing for a new release and focus on songwriting. To keep up with continuity, the ’’Acoustic Archives’’ EP was released in 2024 with music videos to support them. The EP includes fresh acoustic renditions of carefully selected Shiraz classics. After an enthusiastic response from the fans, the band decided to take the concept further and carry out a bundle of special & intimate live shows after the summer season. Simultaneously the band continues to work hard on new material and final recordings have already taken place in Sweden and will now be on the road this summer.

- XVIII DOORS: The musical essence of XIII Doors draws from a diverse range of influences, blending the sounds of Alter Bridge, Alice in Chains, Daughtry, and Tremonti, among others. This fusion of hard rock and heavy metal is further enriched by flavors of world music.
