DORO - Releases New Single ´Living After Midnight´ Feat. Rob Halford
DORO Pesch stands as one of the greatest success stories in rock history.
In 1983, 19-year-old Dorothee Pesch from Düsseldorf set out to conquer the rock world. Today, 40 years later, with over 10 million studio albums sold and countless awards under her belt, DORO has been the undisputed Queen of Metal for decades. With over 3,500 concerts played in more than 60 countries around the world, she has earned herself an outstandingly powerful and enthusiastic fan base!
For this great 40th anniversary, the Metal Queen also invites you to two mega concerts: on August 2nd for a huge headline show at Wacken and on October 28th for her anniversary show in her former hometown Düsseldorf, as well as other worldwide festivals. Let's celebrate with her, our true Metal Queen!
DORO´s new masterpiece - Conqueress - Forever Strong and Proud - will be released worldwide on October 27th via Nuclear Blast.
For this special anniversary album, celebrating her 40th year in music, it would be unthinkable not to have some guests of honour involved. So, the Metal God himself, Rob Halford of JUDAS PRIEST personally did DORO the honour of recording the immortal JUDAS PRIEST classic 'Living After Midnight' as a duet with her.
Rob Halford is one of DORO's all-time favourite vocalists, so this moment finally fulfils a dream that Doro has had since her very first tour with Judas Priest in 1986.
DORO and Rob Halford have breathed new life into this timeless classic, paying tribute to the roots of heavy metal.
DORO comments: "Judas Priest and Rob Halford have always been one of my biggest inspirations and continue to be my heroes. It was so great working with Rob. 'Living After Midnight' has always been one of my favourite songs and I'm so proud of our duet!"

DORO PESCH Receives Lifetime Achievement Award
Germany's most successful rock singer has just been honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award - Germany's most important music accolade.
The Pop Culture Prize was awarded in Berlin's "Admiralspalast" on October 4th in front of musicians, a specialist audience, and media representatives.
The joy was palpable, and Doro accepted the award to thunderous applause from the euphoric music industry present.
The emotional laudatory speech was given by Alex Wesselsky from the band EISBRECHER.
"What an honour," says Doro Pesch. "This award totally motivates me to always go full throttle and give everything! From the bottom of my heart, I thank everyone who has supported me."
The "Prize for Pop Culture" is the continuation of the prestigious German "Echo" music prize.
In the past, metal acts have been rarely seen at this event and it's a great honour for Doro, who will be celebrating 40 years of her career in 2023.
