The Iron Maidens & Burning Witches

Since their inception in 2001, THE IRON MAIDENS have become not only the World's Only Female Tribute to Iron Maiden, but one of the most popular tribute bands ever to perform on stage. Co-founded by drummer Linda McDonald (formerly of Phantom Blue), and currently consisting of bassist Wanda Ortiz, guitarists Courtney Cox and Nikki Stringfield, and vocalist Kirsten Rosenberg, The Iron Maidens dazzle fans with sheer talent with a feminine touch.

BURNING WITCHES was founded during spring 2015 in Switzerland by guitar player, Romana Kalkuhl. It had always been her big dream to perform with a women's heavy metal band on stage. In 2015 Romana started to look for talented ladies for the new band. Jeanine Grob (bass), a longtime friend, became the first official member. Romana wrote her mate Schmier from Destruction/Panzer about her new project, he was interested in the new outfit and the ladies brought him onboard as a producer / consultant. After two records the original lead vocalist left the band in summer 2019 and the girls welcomed Laura Guldemond into their coven as a new Witch on the microphone. After an intensive search and different auditions, Burning Witches found drummer, Lala Frischknecht and Alea Wyss on guitars for the all-female metal band.
