Bruce Dickinson’s Solo Tour Is Light On The Mandrake Project Album

Bruce Dickinson is playing surprisingly few songs from his first solo album in 19 years ‘The Mandrake Project’ despite currently being on The Mandrake Project tour.

Dickinson released ‘The Mandrake Project’ in March 2024. The album feels like a concept record with the prior videos planting a thread across the songs with Dickinson also using the theme of the songs to create a 12 part comic book series.

Watch the Bruce Dickinson Noise11 interview:

Bruce has only been playing four tracks from the new album. 1997’s ‘Accident of Birth’ opens the show and he goes back as far as 1994’s ‘Balls To Picasso’ in the show.

‘The Mandrake Project’ in the seventh solo album for the Iron Maiden frontman. There are no Iron Maiden songs in the solo show.
