Def Leppard

Def Leppard, hailing from Sheffield, UK, burst onto the music scene in 1977, quickly becoming pillars of the new wave of British heavy metal during the early '80s. Renowned for their electrifying blend of hard rock and heavy metal, the band carved a niche for themselves with their groundbreaking sound and production techniques. Although primarily known in rock circles, their influence subtly permeates the electronic and dance music arenas through innovative use of synthesizers and electronic drum sounds in their later works, bridging genres and inspiring a wide array of artists across the spectrum. With a lineup solidified since 1992, featuring Rick Savage, Joe Elliott, Rick Allen, Phil Collen, and Vivian Campbell, Def Leppard continues to be celebrated for their anthemic tracks, dynamic performances, and enduring impact on the music industry.
