[DefLeppard_OrigPhoto LR]Great Britain's premier arena rock band Def Leppard have announced that two of their greatest hits have been newly recorded and will be released in conjunction with the highly anticipated summer blockbuster that shares its name with one of the band's biggest hits, Rock of Ages. Both "Rock of Ages" and "Pour Some Sugar On Me" will be available on all digital music carriers at midnight on June 4th. This will mark the first time in Def Leppard's legendary history that studio versions of their tracks will be available digitally. The songs will be available for purchase following the band's performance on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno this evening. In addition, Def Leppard are set to perform an outdoor concert on Fox & Friends on Friday, June 15th.

Def Leppard will make a return to the United States this June with their Rock of Ages summer tour. The tour is scheduled to kick off on June 20th in Salt Lake City, UT and will end September 15th in California at the Santa Barbara Bowl. Joining Def Leppard for this highly anticipated summer tour are rockers Poison and Lita Ford.


The band's influential career includes numerous hit singles and ground-breaking multi-platinum albums-including two of the best selling albums of all time, Pyromania and Hysteria. With 100 million records sold worldwide and two prestigious Diamond Awards to their credit, Def Leppard--Joe Elliott (vocals), Vivian Campbell (guitar), Phil Collen (guitar), Rick "Sav" Savage (bass) and Rick Allen (drums)-continues to be one of the most important forces in rock music.

Over the course of their career, the band has produced a series of classic groundbreaking albums that set the sound for generations of music fans and artists alike. The group's spectacular live shows, filled with powerful melodic rock anthems, have become synonymous with their name. For the past thirty years the band's concerts have become must-see events and have quickly made them an institution in the touring industry, as they continue to sell out arenas worldwide.
