Hollywood icon Johnny Depp is travelling to Europe for a concert tour with his band Hollywood Vampires, which features rock legends like Joe Perry, Alice Cooper, and Tommy Henriksen.

The ensemble reportedly postponed a tour in March because of pandemic-related issues, according to the media. At the time, they said in a statement, “We kept trying to make it happen, but unfortunately due to the uncertainty of COVID travel restrictions, it is just not possible.”

The band will now perform six performances in Germany and Luxembourg to catch up with its fans. However, there will be a long wait since their first performance won’t be until next June at the Rudolf Weber Arena in Oberhausen, Germany. On June 30, at Zitadelle in Mainz, Germany, they will perform their final performance.

Johnny Depp has been a guest on Jeff Beck’s live shows. The actor travelled to Europe to begin performing with the guitarist right before his trial verdict against ex-wife Amber Heard. The pair has already released the first track from their collaborative album, “This Is A Song For Miss Hedy Lamarr,” which will be published on July 15.

The song, which was written by Depp, honours American actress Lamarr (who died in 2000 at age 85). It is one of two songs Depp composed for the endeavour. The album “18” consists primarily of cover songs, some of which are sung by Johnny Depp and some of which are entirely instrumental. The original Johnny Depp-penned tracks are the album’s exceptions. Additionally, Johnny Depp and Jeff Beck worked together to create the new album “18.”

In a statement, Beck stated that three years ago, when he first shared the “Hedy Lamarr” song, he was “blown away” by Depp. According to Beck, “That song is one of the reasons I asked him to make an album with me.”
