DARKSIDE have announced 2024 UK and European live dates. Marking their second tour in a decade, the shows will commence in Dublin on October 19th, with stops in Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, Istanbul, Thessaloniki, Turin, Paris, Luxembourg, Gent and Brussels.

Emerging from time in the studio this year, the three-piece band, now including percussionist and longtime collaborator Tlacael Esparza as a permanent member alongside Chilean electronic musician Nicolás Jaar and American multi-instrumentalist Dave Harrington, will introduce a new stage show, as well as offering fans a glimpse of new music.

June 2023 saw the band’s European live debut as a trio across headline and festival dates, including two sold-out London shows in KOKO, as well as the release of Live at Spiral House, a loose and playful collection of jams culled from rehearsals in the bands work space in Los Angeles in the summer of 2022. Watch a live performance of ‘Heart Jam’ from the release HERE and a short film documenting the band’s rehearsals HERE, both directed by Jed DeMoss.

DARKSIDE’s long-awaited second album, Spiral, was released in July 2021, preceded by singles ‘Liberty Bell’, ‘The Limit’ and ‘Lawmaker’. The album was hailed as “DARKSIDE (…) at their best and most prismatic” (Crack), “music which shatters easy genre classification” (The Quietus), and “sublime” (MOJO).
