THE CHRIS SLADE TIMELINE WAS FORMED IN 2012 TO CELEBRATE CHRIS SLADE’S 50 PLUS YEAR CAREER AS A PROFESSIONAL ROCK DRUMMER SINCE HE STARTED WITH TOM JONES AT THE TENDER AGE OF JUST 16 YEARS.
Since then he has performed with all the greats, including ACDC for two major World tours and two albums, MANFRED MANN’s EARTHBAND, COUNT BASIE, TOM JONES, PAUL RODGERS and JIMMY PAGE, DAVE GILMOUR, URIAH HEEP, GARY MOORE, ASIA, MICHAEL SCHENKER and many more!
THE CHRIS SLADE TIMELINE take music from all of the above, so expect to hear all the hits you know plus plenty you forgot you love!! The band have toured the UK and Europe extensively, continuing to delight audiences everywhere, giving fans a chance to get up close and personal with the drumming legend…
Their touring was interrupted for two years when CHRIS SLADE received the call from ACDC at the end of 2014 to return for the ROCK OR BUST TOUR. After the end of the tour in 2016, the high energy CHRIS SLADE TIMELINE Band wasted no time in coming back with a vengeance, this time taking with them the ‘ROCK OR BUST’ drum kit.
As well as having an exciting setlist that keeps the band onstage for at least two hours or more, in Europe and UK they tour with the original DW drumkit, which he used at the 57th GRAMMYS. Both kits feature Chris’s distinctive signature side bass drums, made famous by the iconic ‘THUNDERSTRUCK.’ Fans have a rare and unique opportunity to view either of the kits and get ‘up close and personal’ with an actual member of ACDC!
