Deep Purple

British Hard Rock Legends Deep Purple ("Smoke on the Water")

Together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, pioneering rock band Deep Purple made up what came to be known as the "unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal" in the early to mid-'70s, with chart-topping hits on both sides of the pond like "Smoke on the Water," "Highway Star," "Space Truckin'" and "Hush." Just how much does this group rock? They've been circling the globe on their current "NOW What?" tour since 2013, an epic string of performances that now makes its way to Verizon Theatre for a rocking show in Dallas.
