Tony Iommi interested in performing 'From The Dark' live
He "wouldn't mind" doing some concerts
Black Sabbath legend Tony Iommi says he’s "interested" in performing some live shows in support of his critically acclaimed solo album ‘From The Dark’.
Featuring the Planet Rock playlisted anthems ‘World Alone’ and ‘Stormwatcher’, ‘From The Dark’ became Tony Iommi’s first-ever Top 40 solo album when it charted at Number 11 in the UK last week.
Tony Iommi recorded the album with Norwegian powerhouse vocalist Jorn Lande, bassist Becky Baldwin, drummer Karl Brazil and producer Mike Exeter, while Tony’s best friend, Queen’s Brian May, guested on ‘Death Wake’.
78-year-old Tony hasn’t performed live since Black Sabbath’s Back to the Beginning concert in July 2025, and, in a new interview with Guitar World, he refused to rule out one or two concerts in support of his first solo album in 21 years.
Asked if he was planning live dates to promote the album, Tony replied: “We haven’t planned anything yet, but I wouldn’t mind doing a couple of them again.
“I’m not going to be doing world tours or anything like that. That finished with Sabbath, but it’d be interesting to do some on-and-off stuff.”
When the interviewer noted that he could headline some festivals, Tony quipped: “Yeah, but nobody would come! (Laughs) I enjoy playing live. But who knows?”
