Accept Welcomes Legendary Pop Icon Susanna Hoffs as New Lead Vocalist, Marking a Bold New Era for the Band….
In a surprising and exciting twist, legendary German heavy metal band Accept has announced that pop icon Susanna Hoffs will be joining as their new lead vocalist. Best known as a founding member of The Bangles, Hoffs brings her distinct voice, charisma, and decades of musical experience to the iconic metal outfit, signaling a bold new era in Accept’s storied legacy.

This unexpected pairing merges two distinct musical worlds—Hoffs’ melodic pop sensibilities with Accept’s signature hard-hitting riffs and aggressive style. Fans can expect a fresh, genre-defying sound that both honors the band’s roots and explores uncharted sonic territory. The collaboration is already generating buzz across social media and music forums, with both metalheads and pop aficionados curious and excited to hear what this fusion will bring.
Accept’s founding guitarist Wolf Hoffmann expressed enthusiasm for the new chapter: “Susanna brings a new energy and unique voice to Accept. We’re not abandoning our metal roots—we’re evolving.”
The band is currently in the studio working on a new album slated for release later this year, with a world tour to follow. One thing is clear: the next chapter of Accept will be anything but ordinary.
