About Black Sabbitch - A Tribute to Black Sabbath
Hailing from the sun-drenched streets of Los Angeles, Black Sabbitch has carved out a formidable reputation as the world’s best (and only) all-female Black Sabbath tribute band. Formed in 2011, their mission is simple yet profound: to honour the monumental legacy of Black Sabbath with unparalleled precision, passion, and a powerful stage presence that captivates audiences worldwide. They aren’t merely playing the songs; they are channelling the very essence of the band that invented heavy metal.
Black Sabbitch meticulously recreates the signature sound of the original Sabbath line-up, from the crushing, doom-laden riffs of Tony Iommi to the thunderous bass lines of Geezer Butler, the intricate drumming of Bill Ward, and the distinctive, often eerie, vocals of Ozzy Osbourne. Their performances are renowned for their authenticity, demonstrating an incredible mastery of the source material. Expect to hear all the seminal tracks that shaped generations, including the monolithic “War Pigs,” the driving force of “Iron Man,” the iconic “Paranoid,” the psychedelic journey of “N.I.B.,” and the chilling self-titled track “Black Sabbath.” Their current lineup features four fiercely talented musicians, each bringing their considerable skill and dedication to the stage, ensuring a powerful and faithful rendition of Sabbath’s groundbreaking catalogue.
