PAUL DI'ANNO BIOGRAPHY
Paul Di'Anno began his professional musical career singing with Iron Maiden. His style was more punk-influenced than Maiden's next vocalist Bruce Dickinson. Di'Anno left the band after 2 albums, mainly due to his excessive drinking problems. Despite his short tenure in the band, Paul DiĀ“Anno was a major factor in the early development of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement.
He has performed with the following bands:
Iron Maiden
Gogmagog
Killers
Battlezone
Dianno
Paul Di'anno
