The sons of late Phil Campbell have announced two special memorial concerts to honor their father’s legacy following his passing in March 2026 at the age of 64.
The shows will take place in the UK later this year, bringing together members of Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons along with special guests to celebrate his life and music. The band, originally formed by Campbell with his three sons — Todd, Tyla and Dane — became a continuation of his musical journey after Motörhead ended in 2015.
In a heartfelt announcement, the family described the concerts as a way to celebrate Phil’s life, music, and the connection he shared with fans around the world, promising emotional performances and a setlist that reflects his decades-long career.
The events are expected to feature a mix of material spanning his time with Motörhead as well as songs from Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons, giving fans a chance to experience the full scope of his legacy in a live setting.
Phil Campbell was a cornerstone of Motörhead for more than 30 years, joining the band in 1984 and helping shape its sound through countless albums and tours. After the band’s end, he continued performing with his sons, turning their project into a respected act in its own right.
Following his passing after complications from a major operation, tributes poured in from across the rock and metal world, recognizing not only his influence as a guitarist but also his role as a mentor, bandmate, and father.
These memorial concerts now stand as both a tribute and a continuation — a chance for fans and family to come together, celebrate his music, and keep his legacy alive on stage. 🎸
