Announces 2026 European Tour

Unknown Mortal Orchestra has announced a 2026 European tour spanning nineteen dates, including a residency at Earth Theatre, London, during which UMO will perform a different set each night (with discounts on offer for people who buy tickets for multiple nights). Tickets will go on general sale at 10am local time on 3rd October here.
The full list of UK dates are as follows:
26 March – Glasgow, UK – Barrowland
27 March – Manchester, UK – Albert Hall
28 March – Sheffield, UK – Foundry

The tour announcement follows two projects released by UMO this year via Jagjaguwar. The first was the latest in the instrumental IC series, IC-02 Bogotá, released on 28 March. Like IC-01 Hanoi before it, the album serves as a musical document, taking its title from the place it was created, and is described as “possible background music for some strange parties and night drives in your future.” This was followed by the CURSE EP on 18 June, which drew inspiration from Italian horror films of the 1970s and 1980s and reflected the cursed times we find ourselves in. Featuring both immediate, hooky riffs reminiscent of Black Sabbath on “BOYS WITH THE CHARACTERISTICS OF WOLVES” and the laid-back, intricate guitar playing UMO is perhaps best known for on “DEATH COMES FROM THE SKY,” the release provides a fitting soundtrack to your next confrontation with the void.
