Joe Elliot is best known as the lead singer of hard rock glam band Def Leppard, his side band Down ‘n’ Outz is now becoming increasingly popular. The project was born in 2009 when Mott The Hoople reformed and asked long-time friend and fan Joe Elliott (Def Leppard) to get involved. Joe formed the Down ‘n’ Outz with The Quireboys‘ Paul Guerin (Guitar), Guy Griffin (Guitar) and Keith Weir (keyboards), plus Phil Martini (drums). Together they looked to bring songs by Mott The Hoople and spin off projects of Mott, Ian Hunter and British Lions to a wider audience.
Down ‘n’ Outzhave since bagged some great shows, including main stage of High Voltage festival at Victoria Park. 2011 saw the release of the critically acclaimed debut My Re-Generation through Mailboat Records. Soon after that saw the release of their DVD ‘Live At Hammersmith Apollo‘.
Now, Down ‘n’ Outz are pleased to announce UK tour dates in December 2014. The dates support the recent release of the album ‘The Further Adventures Of…’ – which is the third instalment of the project fronted by Def Leppard’s lead singer Joe Elliott, and features tracks connected to Mott the Hoople. The album is available through Bludgeon Riffola via Mailboat Records.
