Phil Campbell's Bastard Sons - Summer 2026

Carrying the torch: Phil Campbell's Bastard Sons honour a rock'n'roll legacy.

Phil Campbell's Bastard Sons are back on stage, driven by a mission that goes well beyond the music. Following the death of their father, rock legend Phil Campbell, the band presses on with unbroken strength, heart and purpose - making sure the rock'n'roll flame he lit never goes out.

What started as an energetic family project between Phil and his sons Todd, Dane and Tyla now stands as a powerful statement of both remembrance and artistic growth. Rooted in an unbreakable family bond and a lifelong devotion to music, the band is no longer a side project - it is a living testament to a heavy rock icon.

The global rock community has responded with overwhelming support. After losing Phil Campbell, the band received prestigious invitations from major festivals and genre legends, including Judas Priest, to perform in Phil's honour. Those invitations reflect the deep and enduring respect the Campbell legacy commands worldwide. Fans can expect a show that would have met Phil's own standards: loud, honest and uncompromising rock'n'roll.
