The Iron Maidens Tribute Band History And Discography

By Brian Meyer


In the 1980s, heavy metal music was all the rage. While there were a number of big hair rock groups, Iron Maiden was considered one of the best. Now, The Iron Maidens, an all female tribute band pays homage to these original rockers.

Currently, the includes two lead guitarists, a drummer, a bassist and a vocalist. The band went through several line-up changes between 2001 and 2003. While this is the case, there group has seen musicians and come and go since the time the band was founded in 2001.

The band started working on a debut album which was finally released in 2005 with Aja Kim replacing Warren on vocals. Once the album was released, there were other changes made to the lineup. While this is the case, the title of the first album remained, The Only All Female Iron Maiden Tribute Band.

As well known guitarist Phil Campbell of Motorhead sat in on the 2nd album, sells were somewhat better than the first. At the same time, numbers and profits were to as good as the band had originally hoped. Still, the group moved forward and continued playing in the United States and abroad.

In 2010, the group released a DVD, Metal Gathering Live In Japan 2010. After which, Nikki Stringfield became a regular band member and was officially recognized as the band's guitarist. While the DVD was a big hit in Japan, the DVD was not as successful in the United States and other areas.

Most recently, Stringfield and Rosenberg were contestants on the music game show Beat Shazam in August of 2017. Whereas, the three albums and video remain quite popular on the metal circuit. While there are a few shows scheduled in February 2018, it is not clear as to whether or not there will be a domestic or world tour anytime soon.

Even with all the changes in talent over the years, the group remains a main-stay in the heavy metal community. While groups such as Blue Floyd or Lez Zeppelin are more rock and roll than metal, all of these tribute groups have the same goal. The goal, to bring back the music of famous bands of the past. At the same time, it would most likely benefit these bands if current line-ups were to remain the same in the future.

For more about this heavy metal tribute band, fans can check out a number of videos on YouTube and other video sites. Whereas, the main Facebook page has a number of photos and videos along with a discussion forum and tour dates. Whether viewing a video or seeing the band live, original Iron Maiden fans will no doubt enjoy the memories and music which are reborn through tribute bands.
