Original members of GRIM REAPER, guitarist Nick Bowcott, bassist Dave Wanklin and drummer Mark Simon, reunited for the first time in over 35 years to perform with singer Harry Conklin of JAG PANZER fame at the Wings Of Angels festival on Saturday, November 23.

Steve Grimmett, producer, songwriter and lead singer of the internationally renowned metal band GRIM REAPER, was remembered at the one-day event, named after the lead track from STEVE GRIMMETT’S GRIM REAPER‘s 2018 album “Walking In The Shadows”.

GRIM REAPER was at the forefront of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal scene which took the world by storm in the 1980s.

Grimmett, who sold over a million albums, is considered one of the greatest heavy metal singers of all time. He gained notoriety throughout the world, with a large following in Europe as well as across the Atlantic in the USA, South America, and also in Japan. His career included numerous highly acclaimed studio albums, single releases and MTV airplay.

Steve passed away in August 2022. To meet the demand from the singer’s global fanbase, his wife Millie organized the festival to celebrate his life with a musical send-off.
