Rick Allen from Def Leppard teases new album
assive. Putting your music out there on different platforms is a great way to reach new fans who might not have encountered your music otherwise. We’ve seen a big surge in our younger audience lately, thanks in part to streaming. But there’s also a downside – it’s harder for new artists to make a living solely from streaming. You really have to tour now to make money. On the other hand, it’s kept us on our toes and inspired us to keep creating, so it’s a balance,” the drummer reflects. As they gear up for more performances in India, it’s clear that the band’s music is a bridge between die-hard fans who have rocked out to their hits for decades and new listeners who might not have been born when classics like ‘Hysteria’ from the 1987 album dropped. “We’ve always wanted our music to resonate with people from all walks of life, regardless of age, background, or location. We pour our hearts and souls into every track, and we love seeing how different people connect with our music in their own way,” he shares.For a band that has witnessed nearly five decades of success, one might expect them to rest on their laurels. But for Def Leppard, it’s all about pushing forward, creating fresh sounds, and connecting with fans across the globe. Their enduring legacy continues to inspire, entertain, and captivate audiences, both old and new. As they embark on yet another world tour, their passion for music and dedication to their craft remain unwavering. With the promise of new music on the horizon, one thing is for certain – Def Leppard is here to stay, ensuring that their timeless tunes will continue to rock the airwaves for generations to come.
