See Blakk Sabbath 'Live'
Blakk Sabbath was the brainchild of Dave Boggon and Mick Simpson. Because they had been lifelong Black Sabbath devotes since the first album. So on the drive back from the last ever Black Sabbath gig in Birmingham in February 2017. They laid plans of their biggest dream, to create the most authentic Black Sabbath tribute band. Then recruiting Chris Goodband and Rik Lambert, rehearsals began in earnest in the fall of 2017.
Blakk Sabbath was unleashed upon the unsuspecting public in April 2018. Playing pubs and venues around North East England of ever increasing size. Culminating in an appearance at the end of December 2018 at the Newcastle O2 Academy playing in front of 800 people. And cementing their reputation as the UK’s most authentic premier tribute to Black Sabbath.
At beginning of 2020 Chris left to pursue a different path. Adam James joined the band as our Zakk Wylde looking Tony Iommi in March 2020. In early 2021 Dave Boggon was unable to continue due to hearing issues and doctors advice. In April 2021 Ben Cleaver the ranks of Blakk Sabbath on Bass.
