Zakk Sabbath, the group formed by the guitarist Zakk Wylde alongside the bassist Robert “Blasko” Nicholson (Ozzy, Rob Zombie) and drummer Joey Castillo (Danzig, QOTSA) to perform Black Sabbath songs announced new 2023 and 2024 tour dates. They have been playing sporadic shows since 2014. The band The Native Howl will be their opening act.
Back in 2020 the trio released an EP called “Vertigo”, which recreated the groundbreaking Black Sabbath self-titled debut album released in 1970. Zakk Wylde first joined Ozzy’s band in 1987 and stayed until 1992, being part of session work in 1995. He came back to tour in 1998 and then from 2001 to 2009. Since 2017 he reunited with Ozzy, who is not being able to tour now due to his health.
Rob “Blasko” Nicholson is Ozzy’s bassist since 2003, being the one who replaced Rob Trujillo after he left to join Metallica.za
