Bruce Dickinson Releases Award-Winning Tears Of The Dragon Video Shot In Brazil

Bruce Dickinson has released a brand-new award-winning video for Tears Of The Dragon, filmed in São Paulo, Brazil, following his appearance at The Town Festival in September 2025. The reimagined version of the classic track appears on More Balls To Picasso, the updated edition of Dickinson’s 1994 solo release.

The cinematic video was directed by Leo Liberti and Antoine de Montremy inside a disused brewery in São Paulo, transforming the historic building into the backdrop for an emotionally charged performance.

Joining Bruce Dickinson and his House Band Of Hell for the performance was the Almai Orchestra, conducted by Antonio Teoli, who also worked on the orchestral studio re-recording of the song. Brazilian ballet dancer Renata Bardazi also features in the video, adding a dramatic visual interpretation to the atmospheric ballad.

Bruce Dickinson said: “When we reimagined the whole More Balls To Picasso album we always wanted to do an orchestral version of Tears Of The Dragon. Antonio Teoli scored it and we recorded it, then we called up the film-maker Leo Liberti who previously shot a load of live stuff for me in Brazil that was fabulous.”

The video has already received international recognition, winning Best Music Video awards at festivals including the Los Angeles Film Awards, New York International Film Awards and Eastern Europe Film Festival, alongside additional nominations across Europe, Asia and North America.
