Back in the early 1970s, Thor was a professional bodybuilder from Vancouver, BC, competing successfully in Mr. USA and Mr. Canada competitions against rivals like Lou Ferrigno and Arnold Schwarzenegger. He later delved into glam/punk rock before finding his niche in the metal landscape. His biggest musical success was in the 1980s when he had chart hits in England and a strong following in America and throughout Europe. He left the music business for a second career as a movie actor, then launched a musical comeback in the late 1990s.
Thor is embarking on a 2019 tour to support his new album Hammer of Justice, scheduled for release at the end of April. Don’t miss this interview AND world premiere, Thursday, March 28!
